3 Many body quantum Otto cycle
4 Universal scalings in work output
5 Transverse Ising model as working medium
We demonstrate the results derived in the previous section using the prototypical model of transverse Ising model (TIM) as the WM of the Otto cycle. The Hamiltonian of TIM is given by
When written in momentum (k) space using the basis |0, 0⟩, |k, 0⟩, |0, −k⟩, |k, −k⟩, the Hamiltonian takes the form
During the unitary strokes of the QOC, the transverse field is changed from h1 to h2 in the B → C stroke using the driving protocol
and vice versa in the D → A stroke using the protocol
For TIM, the value of the critical exponents are
ν = z = 1 which gives
One can also obtain the expression for excess defects or excess energy by integrating the analytical expression given in Eq. 18 where pk is given by the Landau Zener probability which in our case takes the form
