Noise-Induced Quantum Synchronization
Finn Schmolke and Eric Lutz
Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 250601 (2022) – Published 16 December 2022

Noise-induced synchronization can occur in the quantum regime as well as the classical, and by applying noise to a single spin in an arbitrarily long chain, one can synchronize the entire chain.
