Experimental measurement and a physical interpretation of quantum shadow enumerators
Daniel Miller, Kyano Levi, Lukas Postler +18
Throughout its history, the theory of quantum error correction has heavily benefited from translating classical concepts into the quantum setting. In particular, classical notions…
Jet Launching Structure Resolved Near the Supermassive Black Hole in M87
Sheperd S. Doeleman, Vincent L. Fish, David E. Schenck +30
Approximately 10% of active galactic nuclei exhibit relativistic jets, which are powered by accretion of matter onto super massive black holes. While the measured width profiles of…
Event-horizon-scale structure in the supermassive black hole candidate at the Galactic Centre
Sheperd Doeleman, Jonathan Weintroub, Alan E. E. Rogers +25
The cores of most galaxies are thought to harbour supermassive black holes, which power galactic nuclei by converting the gravitational energy of accreting matter into radiation (r…
230 GHz VLBI observations of M87: event-horizon-scale structure at the enhanced very-high-energy -ray state in 2012
Kazunori Akiyama, Ru-Sen Lu, Vincent L. Fish +45
We report on 230 GHz (1.3 mm) VLBI observations of M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope using antennas on Mauna Kea in Hawaii, Mt. Graham in Arizona and Cedar Flat in California. F…
1.3 mm Wavelength VLBI of Sagittarius A*: Detection of Time-Variable Emission on Event Horizon Scales
Vincent L. Fish, Sheperd S. Doeleman, Christopher Beaudoin +27
Sagittarius A*, the ~4 x 10^6 solar mass black hole candidate at the Galactic Center, can be studied on Schwarzschild radius scales with (sub)millimeter wavelength Very Long Baseli…
Detection of intrinsic source structure at ~3 Schwarzschild radii with Millimeter-VLBI observations of SAGITTARIUS A*

We report results from very long baseline interferometric (VLBI) observations of the supermassive black hole in the Galactic center, Sgr A*, at 1.3 mm (230 GHz). The observations w…
Holographic quantum codes with trapped ions
Alex Steiner, Gerard Anglès Munné, Robert Freund +9
Holography is a central concept at the intersection of gravity, condensed matter theory, and quantum information, linking the interior bulk of a system to its boundary. A model rea…
Demonstration of measurement-free universal fault-tolerant quantum computation
Friederike Butt, Ivan Pogorelov, Robert Freund +4
The ability to perform quantum error correction (QEC) and robust gate operations on encoded qubits opens the door to demonstrations of quantum algorithms. Contemporary QEC schemes…
Solving an Industrially Relevant Quantum Chemistry Problem on Quantum Hardware
Ludwig Nützel, Alexander Gresch, Lukas Hehn +10
Quantum chemical calculations are among the most promising applications for quantum computing. Implementations of dedicated quantum algorithms on available quantum hardware were so…
Fine-scale structure of the quasar 3C 279 Measured with 1.3 mm very long baseline interferometry
Ru-Sen Lu, Vincent L. Fish, Kazunori Akiyama +30
We report results from 5-day VLBI observations of the well-known quasar 3C 279 at 1.3 mm (230 GHz) in 2011. The measured nonzero closure phases on triangles including stations in A…
