Description
Summary:In this project I have thoroughly reviewed the work published by A.E. Allaverdyan, R. Serral Gracià and Th.M. Niewenhuizen in two papers called Work Extraction in the Spin Boson Model (ll and Bath-Assisted Cooling of Spins. I learned a lot while at it and tried to emphasize on minor subtlepoints that bothered me along the way. Almost all intermediate steps are included and almost nothing is claimed to be self evident.
