Seminario: Anomalous relaxation effect: Living far from equilibrium, Mpemba and beyond
by Daniel Manzano 24 Jun '26

24 Jun '26

Desde el Grupo de Termodinámica y Computación Cuántica de la UGR les invitamos al siguiente seminario. Ponente: Antonio Lasanta (QTCG-UGR). Título: Anomalous relaxation effect: Living far from equilibrium, Mpemba and beyond. Abstract: In this talk, I will present recent developments related to questions that I have been wondering about for the past ten years. Can we heat up or cool down a system using one or more quenches? Are heating and cooling thermodynamic processes symmetric? More generally, I will discuss some answers we have found, as well as the new questions that emerged in the course of seeking answers to these problems. Fecha y hora: Martes 30 de Junio. 12:00 Lugar: Aula de Física Computacional. Planta baja del edificio de Física, Facultad de Ciencias. Atentamente, Daniel Manzano. Quantum Thermodynamics and Computation Group. Sent from my iPad
