• Abstract: Within the framework of microscopic thermodynamics, correlations can play a crucial role for energy extraction. Our work sheds light on this connection by demonstrating that entanglement governs the amount of extractable energy in a controllable setting. We experimentally investigate a fundamental link between information, encoded in tunable non-classical correlations and quantified by quantum state tomography, and its utility as fuel for energy extraction. We realize an agent-demon protocol involving two trapped-ion qubits, and show that by implementing an appropriate feedback policy, the demon can optimize the energy extraction process, capitalizing on the correlations between the system's constituents. By quantifying both the concurrence of the two-qubit resource state and the energy extraction gain from applying the feedback policy, we corroborate the connection between information and energy, solidifying the role of non-classical correlations as a resource for thermodynamic processes.

  We develop an alternative theoretical framework for the thermodynamic analysis of two-level systems. We observe the appearance of a new term of work, which represents the energy cost of rotating the Bloch vector in presence of the external field that defines the local Hamiltonian. In order to illustrate our findings we study, from both perspectives, matter-radiation interaction processes for two different systems.

  We consider a transient process in which the level and the reservoir is initially switched on and then switched off again. We find the time dependence of the energy of the reservoir, of the energy of the level and of the interaction energy between them at weak, intermediate, strong and ultra-strong coupling.

  The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) offers a universal mechanism for the approach to equilibrium of closed quantum many-body systems. Here, we propose a theory-independent route to probe the full ETH in quantum simulators by observing the emergence of fluctuation-dissipation relations. Our work presents a theory-independent way to characterize thermalization in quantum simulators and paves the way to quantum simulate condensed matter pump-probe experiments.
