subject

Heat capacity entanglement concurrence thermal equilibrium

description

Starting from a recent result on thermodynamic equilibrium of quantum systems, a connection between thermal properties, originating from Gibbs state probabilistic structure, and quantum correlations is discussed as a consequence of entanglement monogamy. As an example, a simple two-qubit system is analyzed, allowing for an expression of such a connection as an explicit function linking heat capacity to a measure of bipartite entanglement.
