Significant-loophole-free test of Bell's theorem with entangled photons

Marissa Giustina, Marijn A. M. Versteegh, Sören Wengerowsky +19

Local realism is the worldview in which physical properties of objects exist independently of measurement and where physical influences cannot travel faster than the speed of light…

Cyclic transformation of orbital angular momentum modes

Florian Schlederer, Mario Krenn, Robert Fickler +2

The spatial modes of photons are one realization of a QuDit, a quantum system that is described in a D-dimensional Hilbert space. In order to perform quantum information tasks with…

An optomechanical elevator: Transport of a Bloch oscillating Bose-Einstein condensate up and down an optical lattice by cavity sideband amplification and cooling

B. Prasanna Venkatesh, D. H. J. O'Dell, J. Goldwin

We analyze the optomechanics of an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate interacting with the optical lattice inside a laser-pumped optical cavity and subject to a uniform bias force suc…

Magnetic Rigid Rotor in the Quantum Regime: Theoretical Toolbox

Cosimo C. Rusconi, Oriol Romero-Isart

We describe the quantum dynamics of a magnetic rigid rotor in the mesoscopic scale where the Einstein-De Haas effect is predominant. In particular, we consider a single-domain magn…

Photonic Quantum Circuits with Time Delays

Hannes Pichler, Peter Zoller

We study the dynamics of photonic quantum circuits consisting of nodes coupled by quantum channels. We are interested in the regime where time delay in communication between the no…

Partial Polarization by Quantum Distinguishability

Mayukh Lahiri, Armin Hochrainer, Radek Lapkiewicz +2

Partial polarization is the manifestation of the correlation between two mutually orthogonal transverse field components associated with a light beam. We show both theoretically an…

Quantum walks on embedded hypercubes: Nonsymmetric and nonlocal cases

Adi Makmal, Markus Tiersch, Clemens Ganahl +1

The expected hitting time of discrete quantum walks on a hypercube (HC) is numerically known to be exponentially shorter than that of their classical analogs in terms of the scalin…

Indefinite causal structures for continuous-variable systems

Flaminia Giacomini, Esteban Castro-Ruiz, Časlav Brukner

In all our well-established theories, it is assumed that events are embedded in a global causal structure such that, for every pair of events, the causal order between them is alwa…

Physical meaning of the radial index of Laguerre-Gauss beams

William N. Plick, Mario Krenn

The Laguerre-Gauss modes are a class of fundamental and well-studied optical fields. These stable, shape-invariant photons - exhibiting circular-cylindrical symmetry - are familiar…

Multi-photon entanglement in high dimensions

Mehul Malik, Manuel Erhard, Marcus Huber +3

Entanglement lies at the heart of quantum mechanics as a fundamental tool for testing its deep rift with classical physics, while also providing a key resource for quantum tech…

Measuring multipartite entanglement via dynamic susceptibilities

Philipp Hauke, Markus Heyl, Luca Tagliacozzo +1

Entanglement plays a central role in our understanding of quantum many body physics, and is fundamental in characterising quantum phases and quantum phase transitions. Developing p…

Automated Search for new Quantum Experiments

Mario Krenn, Mehul Malik, Robert Fickler +2

Quantum mechanics predicts a number of at first sight counterintuitive phenomena. It is therefore a question whether our intuition is the best way to find new experiments. Here we…

Many-body localization in a quantum simulator with programmable random disorder

Jacob Smith, Aaron Lee, Philip Richerme +6

When a system thermalizes it loses all local memory of its initial conditions. This is a general feature of open systems and is well described by equilibrium statistical mechanics.…

Coherent controlization using superconducting qubits

Nicolai Friis, Alexey A. Melnikov, Gerhard Kirchmair +1

Coherent controlization, i.e., coherent conditioning of arbitrary single- or multi-qubit operations on the state of one or more control qubits, is an important ingredient for the f…

Realization of a scalable Shor algorithm

Thomas Monz, Daniel Nigg, Esteban A. Martinez +6

Quantum computers are able to outperform classical algorithms. This was long recognized by the visionary Richard Feynman who pointed out in the 1980s that quantum mechanical proble…

Twisted photon entanglement through turbulent air across Vienna

Mario Krenn, Johannes Handsteiner, Matthias Fink +2

Photons with a twisted phase front can carry a discrete, in principle unbounded amount of orbital angular momentum (OAM). The large state space allows for complex types of entangle…
