Testing the weak equivalence principle for nonclassical matter with torsion balances
Roberto Onofrio, Alexander R. H. Smith, Lorenza Viola
We propose tests of the weak equivalence principle (WEP) using a torsion balance, in which superposition of energy eigenstates are created in a controllable way for the test masses…
Quantum Superpositions of Conscious States in a Minimal Integrated Information Model
Kelvin J. McQueen, Ian T. Durham, Markus P. Mueller
Could there be quantum superpositions of conscious states, as suggested by the Wigner's friend thought experiment? Mathematical theories of consciousness, notably Integrated Inform…
Nonergodic Brownian oscillator: Low-frequency response
Alex V. Plyukhin
An undisturbed Brownian oscillator may not reach thermal equilibrium with the thermal bath due to the formation of a localized normal mode. The latter may emerge when the spectrum…
Nonergodic Brownian oscillator: High-frequency response
Alex V. Plyukhin
We consider a Brownian oscillator whose coupling to the environment may lead to the formation of a localized normal mode. For lower values of the oscillator's natural frequency, $ω…
Measuring the integrated information of a quantum mechanism
Larissa Albantakis, Robert Prentner, Ian Durham
Originally conceived as a theory of consciousness, integrated information theory (IIT) provides a theoretical framework intended to characterize the compositional causal informatio…
Quantum time dilation in a gravitational field
Jerzy Paczos, Kacper Dębski, Piotr T. Grochowski +2
According to relativity, the reading of an ideal clock is interpreted as the elapsed proper time along its classical trajectory through spacetime. In contrast, quantum theory allow…
