Quantum Szilard engine for the fractional power-law potentials
Abstract In this study, we consider the quantum Szilárd engine with a single particle under the fractional power-law potential. We suggest that such kind of the Szilárd engine works a Stirling-like cycle. We obtain energy eigenvalues and canonical partition functions for the degenerate and non-degen...
