Quantum diffusion and thermalization at resonant tunneling
  Nonequilibrium dynamics and effective thermalization are studied in a resonant tunneling scenario via multilevel Landau-Zener crossings. Our realistic many-body system, composed of two energy bands, naturally allows a separation of degrees of freedom. This gives access to an effective temperature and single- and two-body observables to characterize the delocalization of eigenstates and the nonequilibrium dynamics of our paradigmatic complex quantum system.
