Generation of Quantum Entanglement in Autonomous Thermal Machines: Effects of Non-Markovianity, Hilbert Space Structure, and Quantum CoherenceWe present a theoretical investigation of entanglement generation in an external quantum system interacting with a quantum autonomous thermal machine (QATM) under a non-Markovian dynamics. Indeed, the QATM is composed of two non-coupled qubits. Each qubit is coupled to an independent thermal reservoir, where each reservoir interacts with an external system of two additional non-coupled qubits. By analyzing the Hilbert space structure, energy level configurations, and temperature gradients, we d…
