Alexssandre de Oliveira Junior

After obtaining my BSc in Physics at São Paulo State University, I moved to the Institute of Physics ?Gleb Wataghin?, where I pursued my MSc degree in Physics under the supervision of Professor Marcos César de Oliveira. I then joined the Quantum Resources Group team as a PhD candidate at the Jagiellonian University in March 2020. My research interests consist in understanding how quantum features, such as entanglement and coherence, affect classical formulations of thermodynamics and explore the deep connections between energy and information. This leads me to research on quantum information theory, with a particular emphasis on resource theory of thermodynamics and thermodynamic aspects of open quantum systems. I have also become increasingly interested in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics.

Bacharel em Física pela Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho e mestre em Física pela Universidade Estadual de Campinas. Atualmente é doutorando na Universität Jagiellonski. Atua com interesse em teoria de recursos com aplicações em termodinâmica quântica.
