Abstract
The dimensionality of a thermometer is key in the design of quantum thermometry schemes. In general,the phenomenology that is typical of qubit-based quantum thermometry does not apply to infinite-dimensionalones. We analyze the dynamical and metrological features of nonequilibrium Gaussian quantum thermometers:On one hand, we highlight how quantum entanglement can enhance the readiness of composite Gaussianthermometers; on the other hand, we show that nonequilibrium conditions do not guarantee the best sensitivitiesin temperature estimation, thus suggesting the reassessment of some of the working principles underpinningquantum thermometry.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
