• Abstract: Gate-based quantum computers are an innovative tool for experimentally studying the core principles of quantum mechanics. This work presents the first observation of quantum anomalous heat flow between two qubits and investigates the role of mid-circuit measurements in this context. Using mid-circuit measurements, we designed quantum circuits that violate the semi-classical heat flow bound, witnessing negativities in the underlying Kirkwood-Dirac quasiprobability distribution, which indicates the presence of quantum correlations between the subsystems. Mid-circuit measurements, crucial for probing qubits during the experiment, enabled these observations but also introduced disturbances, such as energy leakage, leading to deviations from theoretical predictions. We modeled these noise effects, providing insight into the limitations of current mid-circuit measurement techniques.

  In quantum information processing quantum operations are often processed alongside measurements which result in classical data. Non-unitary dynamical processes can take place on the system, for which common quantum channel descriptions fail to describe the time evolution. Quantum measurements are correctly treated by means of so-called quantum instruments capturing both classical outputs and post-measurement quantum states.
