Experimental implementation of a four-player quantum game
Christian Schmid, Adrian P. Flitney, Witlef Wieczorek +3
Game theory is central to the understanding of competitive interactions arising in many fields, from the social and physical sciences to economics. Recently, as the definition of i…
Thermal States of Anyonic Systems
S. Iblisdir, D. Perez-Garcia, M. Aguado +1
A study of the thermal properties of two-dimensional topological lattice models is presented. This work is relevant to assess the usefulness of these systems as a quantum memory. F…
Memory for Light as a Quantum Process
M. Lobino, C. Kupchak, E. Figueroa +1
We report complete characterization of an optical memory based on electromagnetically induced transparency. We recover the superoperator associated with the memory, under two diffe…
Collisional effects in the formation of cold guided beams of polar molecules
Michael Motsch, Christian Sommer, Martin Zeppenfeld +3
High fluxes of cold polar molecules are efficiently produced by electric guiding and velocity filtering. Here, we investigate different aspects of the beam formation. Variations of…
Continuous guided beams of slow and internally cold polar molecules
Christian Sommer, Laurens D. van Buuren, Michael Motsch +4
We describe the combination of buffer-gas cooling with electrostatic velocity filtering to produce a high-flux continuous guided beam of internally cold and slow polar molecules. I…
Coherent Thomson backscattering from laser-driven relativistic ultra-thin electron layers
Jürgen Meyer-ter-Vehn, Hui-Chun Wu
The generation of laser-driven dense relativistic electron layers from ultra-thin foils and their use for coherent Thomson backscattering is discussed, applying analytic theory and…
The reflectivity of relativistic ultra-thin electron layers
Hui-Chun Wu, Jürgen Meyer-ter-Vehn
The coherent reflectivity of a dense, relativistic, ultra-thin electron layer is derived analytically for an obliquely incident probe beam. Results are obtained by two-fold Lorentz…
Acceleration of ultra-thin electron layer. Analytical treatment compared with 1D-PIC simulation
Meng Wen, Hui-Chun Wu, Jürgen Meyer-ter-Vehn +1
In this paper, we apply an analytical model [V.V. Kulagin et al., Phys. Plasmas 14,113101 (2007)] to describe the acceleration of an ultra-thin electron layer by a schematic single…
Competing many-body interactions in systems of trapped ions
A. Bermudez, D. Porras, M. A. Martin-Delgado
We propose and theoretically analyse an experimental configuration in which lasers induce 3-spin interactions between trapped ions.By properly choosing the intensities and frequenc…
New Measurement of the 2S Hyperfine Interval in Atomic Hydrogen
N. Kolachevsky, A. Matveev, J. Alnis +3
An optical measurement of the 2S hyperfine interval in atomic hydrogen using two-photon spectroscopy of the 1S-2S transition gives a value of 177 556 834.3(6.7) Hz. The uncertainty…
Classical spin systems and the quantum stabilizer formalism: general mappings and applications
R. Hübener, M. Van den Nest, W. Dür +1
We present general mappings between classical spin systems and quantum physics. More precisely, we show how to express partition functions and correlation functions of arbitrary cl…
Measurement noise floor for a long-distance optical carrier transmission via fiber
G. Grosche, O. Terra, K. Predehl +6
We investigated the measurement floor and link stability for the transfer of an ultra-stable optical frequency via an optical fiber link. We achieved a near-delay-limited instabili…
Photon-Photon Entanglement with a Single Trapped Atom
B. Weber, H. P. Specht, T. Mueller +4
An experiment is performed where a single rubidium atom trapped within a high-finesse optical cavity emits two independently triggered entangled photons. The entanglement is mediat…
Addendum to "Experimental demonstration of a quantum protocol for Byzantine agreement and liar detection" arXiv:0710.0290
Sascha Gaertner, Mohamed Bourennane, Christian Kurtsiefer +2
Gao et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 208901 (2008)] have described a possible intercept-resend attack for the quantum protocol for detectable Byzantine agreement in Phys. Rev. Lett. 1…
Quantum simulations based on measurements and feedback control
K. G. H. Vollbrecht, J. I. Cirac
We propose a scheme for performing quantum simulations with atoms in cavities based on a photon detection feedback loop that requires only linear optical elements. Atoms can be sto…
Fast ignition of fusion targets by laser-driven electrons
J. J. Honrubia, J. Meyer-ter-Vehn
We present hybrid PIC simulations of fast electron transport and energy deposition in pre-compressed fusion targets, taking full account of collective magnetic effects and the hydr…
A constraint on antigravity of antimatter from precision spectroscopy of simple atoms
Savely G. Karshenboim
Consideration of antigravity for antiparticles is an attractive target for various experimental projects. There are a number of theoretical arguments against it but it is not quite…
Two-photon gateway in one-atom cavity quantum electrodynamics
A. Kubanek, A. Ourjoumtsev, I. Schuster +4
Single atoms absorb and emit light from a resonant laser beam photon by photon. We show that a single atom strongly coupled to an optical cavity can absorb and emit resonant photon…
Dynamical Coupling between a Bose-Einstein Condensate and a Cavity Optical Lattice
Stephan Ritter, Ferdinand Brennecke, Kristian Baumann +3
A Bose-Einstein condensate is dispersively coupled to a single mode of an ultra-high finesse optical cavity. The system is governed by strong interactions between the atomic motion…
Classical simulation of quantum computation, the Gottesman-Knill theorem, and slightly beyond
M. Van den Nest
We study classical simulation of quantum computation, taking the Gottesman-Knill theorem as a starting point. We show how each Clifford circuit can be reduced to an equivalent, man…
