Dissipative Control of Chirality in Quantum Spin Systems

SPICE Workshop on Young Research Leaders Group Workshop: Transport and transfer of angular momentum: magnons, chiral phonons and beyond June 9th - 11th, 2026

Dissipation is often viewed as a detrimental effect in quantum systems, leading to decoherence and loss of information. In this talk, I will show how dissipation can instead be harnessed as a resource to control and engineer chirality in quantum spin systems. In particular, I will discuss how tailored dissipative processes can induce directional dynamics and enable the generation of robust tripartite entanglement.
