Quantum Correlated Heat Engine In XY Chainwith Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interactions

In this paper, we consider a heat engines composed of two interactionalqubits with spin-orbit interaction (Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM)) subjectto an external magnetic field, so that each qubit is considered as a cold orhot source. One intention of this work is to investigate the following question: is it possible the effects of DM lead to improve basic thermodynamicquantities in this heat engine are coupled to local environments that arenot necessarily at equilibrium? For this end, we investigate the effects ofthe temperature and the interaction rate of each qubit with its surrounding environment on quantum correlations such as quantum coherence andquantum discord and quantum entanglements, as well as the generatedwork. Finally we compare three quantum correlations (entanglement, discord, and coherence) with thermodynamic parameters and show that theoutput work is positive for what values of the magnetic field so that thiscycle can be considered as a thermal machine.
