exeterunilogo

Dr Anders arrived at the University of Exeter in 2013 and now leads Exeter’s Quantum Non-Equilibrium group, a research group working on topics in quantum thermodynamics, statistical physics and quantum information theory.

Research topics

    • fluctuating work in the quantum regime
    • quantum thermodynamics experiments with levitated nanospheres and superconducting qubits
    • thermodynamic work associated with quantum coherences
    • non-equilibrium temperatures of levitated nanospheres
    • ancilla-driven quantum computation
    • measurement-based quantum computation
    • thermal state entanglement of quantum many-body systems
    • tomographic quantum cryptography
