### Achieving local coherence in thermal states by intra-system coupling

• Physics
• 2022
Quantum superposition of energy eigenstates can appear autonomously in a single quantum two-level system coupled to a low-temperature thermal bath, if such coupling has a proper composite nature. We

The common reservoir can cause some unique effects, such as dark state and steady-state coherence, which are extensively studied in the dynamics of open quantum system. In this work, by means of

### Commutativity and the emergence of classical objectivity

• Computer Science
Journal of Physics Communications
• 2022
This work examines how the ability of a system to redundantly proliferate relevant information about its pointer states is affected when it is coupled to multiple baths and sheds light on the role that commutativity between the various system-bath interaction terms plays when establishing the conditions for classical objectivity to be supported.

### Thermally-induced qubit coherence in quantum electromechanics
