Violation of Detailed Balance in Quantum Open Systems

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

We consider the dynamics of a quantum system immersed in a dilute gas at thermodynamic equilibrium using a quantum Markovian master equation derived by applying the low-density limit technique. It is shown that the Gibbs state at the bath temperature is always stationary while the detailed balance condition at this state can be violated beyond the Born approximation. This violation is generically related to the absence of time-reversal symmetry for the scattering T matrix, which produces a thermalization mechanism that allows the presence of persistent probability and heat currents at thermal equilibrium. This phenomenon is illustrated by a model of an electron hopping between three quantum dots in an external magnetic field.
