Production rate of the system-bath mutual information
Production rate of the system-bath mutual information
When an open system comes into contact with several thermal baths, the entropy produced by the irreversible processes (dS_{i}=dS-∑_{α} đQ_{α}/T_{α}) keeps increasing, and this entropy production rate is always non-negative. However, when the system comes into contact with nonthermal baths containing quantum coherence or squeezing, this entropy production formula does …
