Title: Collective effects and quantum coherence in dissipative charging of quantum batteries
Authors: Franco Mayo and Augusto J. Roncaglia
Abstract summary: We show that for low temperatures the collective process can attain a charging power that increases polynomically with the number of batteries. We also study the dissipative charging process of single battery using a time dependent Hamiltonian that generates coherences in the energy basis.

Abstract: We consider the dissipative charging process of quantum batteries in terms of a collisional model, where the batteries are coupled to a heat bath using non-energy preserving interactions. First, we show that for low temperatures the collective process can attain a charging power that increases polynomically with the number of batteries. The scaling we find is $N^3$ that, while being grater than the bound obtained for unitary processes, it has a lower efficiency. Then, we study the dissipative charging process of single battery using a time dependent Hamiltonian that generates coherences in the energy basis. In this case we find that the presence of coherence could enhance the charging power and also its efficiency. Finally, we show how this process can be used in a quantum heat engine that contains the charging process as one of its open strokes.

How do noncommuting charges affect thermodynamic phenomena? Charges' noncommutation has been found to invalidate derivations of the thermal state's form. Evidence suggests that noncommuting charges may hinder thermalization in some ways while enhancing thermalization in others.
