Abstract summary: We study the statistics of energy fluctuations in a three-level quantum system. We discuss the occurrence of a unique energy scale factor $beta_rm eff$ that formally plays the role of an effective inverse temperature.

Abstract: We study the statistics of energy fluctuations in a three-level quantum system subject to a sequence of projective quantum measurements. We check that, as expected, the quantum Jarzynski equality holds provided that the initial state is thermal. The latter condition is trivially satisfied for two-level systems, while this is generally no longer true for $N$-level systems, with $N > 2$. Focusing on three-level systems, we discuss the occurrence of a unique energy scale factor $\beta_{\rm eff}$ that formally plays the role of an effective inverse temperature in the Jarzynski equality. To this aim, we introduce a suitable parametrization of the initial state in terms of a thermal and a non-thermal component. We determine the value of $\beta_{\rm eff}$ for a large number of measurements and study its dependence on the initial state. Our predictions could be checked experimentally in quantum optics.

The quantum Rabi model (QRM) is used to describe the light-matter interaction at the quantum level in Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics (Cavity QED) In this study, we comparatively analyze the behaviors of the QRM and the influence of the $A2$ term in the light-matter quantum Hamiltonian.

Thermalization and Criticality on an Analog-Digital Quantum Simulator [133.58336306417294]
We present a quantum simulator comprising 69 superconducting qubits which supports both universal quantum gates and high-fidelity analog evolution. We observe signatures of the classical Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition, as well as strong deviations from Kibble-Zurek scaling predictions. We digitally prepare the system in pairwise-entangled dimer states and image the transport of energy and vorticity during thermalization.
