Local and global heat capacities of confined Bose gases: The impact of quantum migration

Altuğ Şişman, Jonas Fransson

The recently proposed macroscopic quantum phenomenon, Temperature-Induced Quantum Migration (TIQM), causes local heating and cooling and significantly affects the local heat capacity of a noninteracting confined Maxwell-Boltzmann gas. TIQM guarantees the non-negativity of local heat capacity at low temperatures, results in a substantial local heat-capacity overshoot, and provides a physical basis for global heat-capacity maxima and thermal confinement energy. We extend this framework here to Bose gases in three different rectangular domains, effectively providing three-dimensional (3D)/two-dimensional (2D)/one-dimensional (1D) confinement at high temperatures while transitioning to 2D/1D/zero-dimensional (0D) at low temperatures, thus inducing dimensional crossovers during temperature changes. We demonstrate that quantum degeneracy enhances the TIQM process, resulting in dimension-dependent effects on local and global heat capacities. For the 3D-2D crossover, TIQM leads to a giant excess local heat capacity and explains the mechanism for the enhancement of the global heat-capacity maximum, which surpasses the unconfined ideal Bose gas limit (1.93), reaching 1.97 at a finite density. Conversely, for the 2D-1D and 1D-0D crossovers, the excess local heat capacity diminishes with increasing quantum degeneracy (density), while it is TIQM alone that becomes responsible for excess global heat capacity. For the 1D-0D crossover, we find that only single-particle ergodic systems can have a global excess heat capacity; otherwise, the maximum behavior disappears completely. TIQM also provides a mechanism for the thermal confinement energy in Bose gases.

Hybrid scaling mechanism of critical behavior in the overlapping critical regions of classical and quantum Yang-Lee edge singularities

Yuemei Sun, Wenjing Yu, Xinyu Wang +1 more

Abstract Recently, scaling behavior in Yang-Lee edge singularities (YLES) has attracted sustained attention. However, the scaling mechanism in the overlapping critical region between classical and quantum YLES remains unclear. In this work, we apply established renormalization group (RG) crossover theory to non-Hermitian YLES system. We demonstrate that, in the overlapping critical region between classical and quantum YLES, the scaling behavior can be described by a hybrid scaling mechanism, which asserts that scaling functions from both critical regimes apply simultaneously and satisfy a constraint relation. The transverse Ising chain in an imaginary longitudinal field is employed as a model to test this hybrid scaling mechanism. This model exhibits zero-dimensional (0D) and one-dimensional (1D) quantum YLES phase transitions at zero temperature, as well as 0D and 1D classical YLES phase transitions at finite temperature. We systematically investigate the scaling functions in the critical regions of 0D and 1D quantum YLES and those of 0D and 1D classical YLES. Furthermore, the hybrid scaling mechanisms in the overlapping critical regions, particularly between classical and quantum YLES, are thoroughly examined. Our results provide a concrete realization of quantum-to-classical crossover in a non-Hermitian YLES system and establish a hybrid scaling framework that captures critical behavior in overlapping regions between classical and quantum phase transitions. This framework enables the extraction of quantum critical information from finite-temperature classical measurements, thereby bridging the two paradigms and offering a pathway to probe quantum criticality experimentally.

Kibble-Zurek Dynamics in the Anisotropic Ising Model of the Si(001) Surface

G. Schaller, Friedemann Queißer, S. P. Katoorani +8 more

As a simplified description of the nonequilibrium dynamics of buckled dimers on the Si(001) surface, we consider the anisotropic two-dimensional (2D) Ising model and study the freezing of spatial correlations during a cooling quench across the critical point. Depending on the cooling rate, we observe a crossover from one-dimensional (1D) to 2D behavior. For rapid cooling, we find effectively 1D behavior in the strongly coupled direction, for which we provide an exact analytic solution of the nonequilibrium dynamics. For slower cooling rates, we start to see 2D behavior where our numerical simulations show an approach to the usual Kibble-Zurek scaling in 2D.
