Controllable diatomic molecular quantum thermodynamic machines

We present quantum heat machines using a diatomic molecule modelled by a $q$-deformed potential as a working medium. We analyze the effect of the deformation parameter and other potential parameters on the work output and efficiency of the quantum Otto and quantum Carnot heat cycles. Furthermore, we derive the analytical expressions of work and efficiency as a function of these parameters. Interestingly, our system operates as a quantum heat engine across the range of parameters considered. In addition, the efficiency of the quantum Otto heat engine is seen to be tunable by the deformation parameter. Our findings provide useful insight for understanding the impact of anharmonicity on the design of quantum thermal machines.

Driven Magnon-Photon System as a Tunable Quantum Heat Rectifier

Controlling heat flow at the quantum level is a key challenge for next-generation quantum technologies, including thermal management and quantum information processing. Here, we investigate quantum heat transport in an asymmetrically driven hybrid magnon-photon system in contact with two thermal baths at different temperatures. We demonstrate that external driving of the magnonic subsystem provides a versatile control knob for tailoring steady-state heat currents and their asymmetry. We identify the mechanisms governing thermal rectification in the hybrid system: we find that strong rectification emerges in the regime of weak magnon-photon hybridization combined with intense magnon driving. In this regime, the external drive enables control over both the magnitude and direction of the heat current, allowing the rectification parameter to be tuned across its entire physically accessible range.

Quantum information entropy of a particle trapped by the Aharonov-Bohm-type effect

In this research article, we use the Shannon's formalism to investigate the quantum information entropy of a particle trapped by the Aharonov-Bohm-type effect. For quantum information study, it is necessary to investigate the eigenstates of the quantum system, i. e., the wave functions and energies of the quantum states. We assumed that the particle is in principle, confined in a cylindrical box in the presence of an Aharonov-Bohm-type effect due to dislocation defect. Analysis of the quantum information entropy, reveals that the dislocation influences the eigenstates and, consequently, the quantum information of the system.

Quantum information entropy of heavy mesons in the presence of a point-like defect

Using Schrödinger's formalism, we investigate the quantum eigenstates of the heavy mesons trapped by a point-like defect and by Cornell's potential. One implements this defect to the model considering a spherical metric profile coupled to it. Furthermore, the Nikiforov-Uvarov method is applied to theory to study the quantum eigenstates of the heavy mesons. To calculate the quantum information entropy (QIE), one considers the wave functions that describe the charmonium and bottomonium states. To explore the QIE, we use the well-known Shannon's entropy formulated at the position and reciprocal space. The analysis of the QIE gives us relevant information about how the quantum information change with the variation of the point-like defect. Consequently, considering the Bialynicki-Birula and Mycielski (BBM) relation, we show how this defect influences the quarkonium position and momentum uncertainty measures.

Quantum information of the Aharanov-Bohm ring with Yukawa interaction in the presence of disclination

We investigate the quantum information by a theoretical measurement approach of an Aharanov-Bohm (AB) ring with Yukawa interaction in curved space with disclination. It obtained the so-called Shannon entropy, through the eigenfunctions of the system. The quantum states considered come from a Schroedinger theory with the AB field in the background of curved space. With this entropy, it can explore the quantum information at the position space and reciprocal space. Furthermore, we discussed how the magnetic field, the AB flux, and the topological defect influence the quantum states and the information entropy.

Confinement Effects of External Fields and Topological Defect on Hydrogen Atom in a Quantum-plasma Environment

This study looks at the confinement effects of Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux and magnetic fields, as well as topological defects in a quantum plasma, on the hydrogen atom. The joint effects show that the system is extremely attractive. Furthermore, as we've shown, the joint effect of the fields is greater than the sum of the individual effects, resulting in a significant change in the system's bound state energy. The magnetic field can be used as a control parameter or booster, whereas the topological defect and AB field are needed to hold the hydrogen atom in quantum plasmas at a low energy. The findings of our research may be extended to atomic structure and plasma collisions.

Effects of Topological Defect on the Energy Spectra and Thermo-magnetic Properties of CO Diatomic Molecule

Confinement effects of Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux and magnetic fields with topological defect on CO diatomic molecule modeled by screened modified Kratzer potential is investigated in this paper. The all-encompassing effects of the fields and topological defect result in a strongly repulsive system. We discover that the collective effect of the fields and defect is intense than the lone and dual effect and consequently there is a substantial shift in the bound state energy of the system. We also find that to sustain a low-energy medium for the molecule modeled by SMKP, the topological defect and weak AB field are required, whereas the Magnetic field can be used as a control parameter or enhancer. The effects of the topological defect and magnetic and AB fields on the thermal and magnetic properties of the system are duly analyzed. We observe that the system tends to exhibit both a paramagnetic and diamagnetic behavior for weak and intense magnetic field respectively and some sort of saturation at large magnetic field. To further validate our findings, we map our result to 3D and a comparison of our results with what obtains in literature reveals an excellent agreement.

Thermal Properties of Deng-Fan-Eckart Potential model using Poisson Summation Approach

The Deng-Fan-Eckart (DFE) potential is as good as the Morse potential in studying atomic interaction in diatomic molecules. By using the improved Pekeris-type approximation, to deal with the centrifugal term, we obtain the bound-state solutions of the radial Schrödinger equation with this adopted molecular model via the Factorization Method. With the energy equation obtained, the thermodynamic properties of some selected diatomic molecules(H2 , CO , and ScN ) were obtained using Poisson summation method.. The unnormalized wave function is also derived. The energy spectrum for a set of diatomic molecules for different values of the vibrational n and rotational l are obtained. To show the accuracy of our results, we discuss some special cases by adjusting some potential parameters and also compute the numerical eigenvalue of the Deng-Fan potential for comparison sake. However, it was found out that our results agree excellently with the results obtained via other methods.

Energy spectra and thermal properties of diatomic molecules in the presence of magnetic and AB fields with improved Kratzer potential

In the present study, the improved screened Kratzer potential (ISKP) is investigated in the presence of external magnetic and Aharanov-Bohm (AB) fields within the framework of non-relativistic quantum mechanics. The Schrodinger equation is solved via the Nikiforov-Uvarov Functional Analysis (NUFA) method and the energy spectra and the corresponding wave function for the ISKP in the presence of external magnetic fields are obtained in a closed form. The obtained energy spectra are used to study three selected diatomic molecules (H2, HCl and LiH). It is observed that the present of the magnetic and AB fields removes the degeneracy for different values of the control parameter. The thermodynamic and magnetic properties of the ISKP in the present of the magnetic and AB fields are also evaluated. The effects of the control potential parameter on the thermodynamic and magnetic properties of the selected diatomic molecules are discussed.

The modified Dirac delta and uniform distribution comparatively in each case in the absence and the presence of the deformation parameter were considered.

Thermodynamic properties of the Superstatistics and Normal Statistics of the Schrodinger Equation with generalized trigonometric Poschl Teller potential

Analytical solutions of the Schrodinger equation for the generalized trigonometric Poschl Teller potential by using an appropriate approximation to the centrifugal term within the framework of the Functional Analysis Approach have been considered. Using the energy equation obtained, the vibrational partition function was calculated and other relevant thermodynamic properties. More so, we use the concept of the superstatistics to also evaluate the thermodynamics properties of the system. It is noted that the well-known normal statistics results are recovered in the absence of the deformation parameter and this is displayed graphically for the clarity of our results. We also obtain analytic forms for the energy eigenvalues and the bound state eigenfunction solutions are obtained in terms of the hypergeometric functions. The numerical energy spectra for different values of the principal and orbital quantum numbers are obtained. To show the accuracy of our results, we discuss some special cases by adjusting some potential parameters and also compute the numerical eigenvalue of the trigonometric Poschl Teller potential for comparison sake. However, it was found out that our results agree excellently with the results obtained via other methods

Thermal properties and Magnetic susceptibility of Hellmann potential in Aharanov-Bohm(AB) flux and Magnetic fields at zero and finite temperatures

In this research work, the Hellmann potential is studied in the presence of external magnetic and AB-flux fields. We solve the Schrodinger in the presence of these fields and the potential via the functional analysis approach (FAA). The energy equation and wave function of the system are obtained in closed form. The effect of the fields on the energy spectra of the system examined in details. It is found that the AB field performs better than the magnetic in its ability to remove degeneracy. Furthermore, the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility of the system was discussed at zero and finite temperatures. We evaluate the partition function and use it to evaluate other thermodynamic properties of the system such as magnetic susceptibility, Helmholtz free energy,entropy, internal energy and specific heat. A comparative analysis of the magnetic susceptibility of the system at zero and finite temperature shows a similarity in the behavior of the system. A straight forward extension of our results to three dimension shows that the present result is consistent with what is obtains in literature.

Superstatistics of Schrödinger Equation with Pseudoharmonic potential in an External Magnetic and Aharanov-Bohm(AB) Fields

In this work, the thermodynamic property of pseudoharmonic potential in the presence of external magnetic and AB fields is investigated. We used effective Boltzmann factor within the superstatistics formalism to obtain the thermodynamic properties such as Helmholtz free energy (F), Internal energy (U), entropy(S) and specific heat (C) of the system. In addition, we discuss the result of the thermodynamic properties of some selected diatomic molecules of N2, Cl2, I2 and CH using their experimental spectroscopic parameters and that of the variation of the deformation parameter of q=0,0.3,0.7. We also illustrated with some graphs for clarity of our results in both cases.

Relativistic Treatment of the Hellmann-generalized Morse potential

We solve the relativistic equations(Klein-Gordon and Dirac equation) via the conventional Nikiforov-Uvarov method. In order to overcome the centrifugal barrier, we employed the well-known Greene and Aldrich approximation scheme. The corresponding normalized eigenfunctions was also obtained in each case. It was shown that in the non-relativistic limits, both energy equations obtained by solving Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations, and wavefunctions reduced to the non-relativisitc energy Equation. The bound state energy eigenvalues for N_2, CO, NO, CH and HCl diatomic molecules were computed for various vibrational and rotational quantum numbers. It was found that our results agree with those in literature.

Bound state solutions of the generalized shifted Hulthen potential

In this study, we obtain an approximate solution of the Schrodinger equation in arbitrary dimensions for the generalized shifted Hulthen potential model within the framework of the Nikiforov-Uvarov method. The bound state energy eigenvalues were computed and the corresponding eigenfunction was also obtained. It is found that the numerical eigenvalues were in good agreement for all three approximations scheme used. Special cases were considered when the potential parameters were altered, resulting into Hulthen Potential and Woods-Saxon Potential respectively. Their energy eigenvalues expressions agreed with the already existing literatures. A straightforward extension to the s-wave case for Hulthen potential and Woods-Saxon Potential cases are also presented.
