Most objects around us are in thermal equilibrium. But are some
systems "more thermal" than others?
The emerging paradigm of deep thermalization and projected ensembles
has indeed demonstrated that there can be
different degrees of thermality, depending on how much information can
be extracted from the system and, relatedly,
the behavior of multiple copies of the system. In my talk I will discuss a
related concept of observable projected ensembles and a
field-theoretic approach to this problem based on the replica trick.
Bases on https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.21397 and on-going work.
