Irreversibility and the Arrow of Time in a Quenched
... FIG. 2 (color online). We show a section of the magnetometer employed in our NMR experiment. A superconducting magnet, which produces a high intensity magnetic field (B0 ) in the longitudinal direction, is immersed in liquid He, surrounded by liquid N in another vacuum separated chamber, in a therma ...

Chain rules for quantum Rényi entropies
... The Shannon entropy is one of the central concepts in information theory: it quantifies the amount of uncertainty contained in a random variable, and is used to characterize a wide range of information theoretical tasks. However, it is primarily useful for making asymptotic statements about problems ...
