Narrowline Laser Cooling and Spectroscopy of Molecules via Stark States

Kameron Mehling, Justin J. Burau, Logan E. Hillberry +5

The electronic energy level structure of yttrium monoxide (YO) provides a long-lived, low-lying state ideal for high-precision molecular spectroscopy, narrowline laser cool…

Integrability of Goldilocks quantum cellular automata

Logan E. Hillberry, Lorenzo Piroli, Eric Vernier +3

Goldilocks quantum cellular automata (QCA) have been simulated on quantum hardware and produce emergent small-world correlation networks. In Goldilocks QCA, a single-qubit unitary…

Optically-trapped microspheres are high-bandwidth acoustic transducers

Logan E. Hillberry, Mark G. Raizen

We report on the use of an optically-trapped microsphere as an acoustic transducer. A model for the hydrodynamic coupling between the microsphere and the surrounding acoustic fluid…

Efficient cooling of high-angular-momentum atoms

Logan E. Hillberry, Dmitry Budker, Simon M. Rochester +1

We propose a highly efficient and fast method of translational cooling for high-angular-momentum atoms. Optical pumping and stimulated transitions, combined with magnetic forces, c…

Small-world complex network generation on a digital quantum processor

Eric B. Jones, Logan E. Hillberry, Matthew T. Jones +9

Quantum cellular automata (QCA) evolve qubits in a quantum circuit depending only on the states of their neighborhoods and model how rich physical complexity can emerge from a simp…

Weighing an optically trapped microsphere in thermal equilibrium with air

L. E. Hillberry, Y. Xu, S. Miki-Silva +5

We report a weighing metrology experiment of a single silica microsphere optically trapped and immersed in air. Based on fluctuations about thermal equilibrium, three different mas…

Entangled quantum cellular automata, physical complexity, and Goldilocks rules

Logan E. Hillberry, Matthew T. Jones, David L. Vargas +6

Cellular automata are interacting classical bits that display diverse emergent behaviors, from fractals to random-number generators to Turing-complete computation. We discover that…
