Abstract
In a report published in Science, Scully et al propose to generate "phaseonium", and "extract work from a single heat bath via vanishing coherence" [1]. On the basis of the laws of physics, such a proposal is futile for at least two reasons.
Why This Paper Matters
- This paper contributes to the Open Quantum Systems & Decoherence research area in the Quantum Articles archive.
- It adds a 2007 reference point for readers tracking recent quantum research.
- In a report published in Science, Scully et al propose to generate "phaseonium", and "extract work from a single heat bath via vanishing coherence" [1].
