We consider single-field inflation in light of string-motivated "swampland" conjectures suggesting that effective scalar field theories with a consistent UV completion must have fi…

Quantum thermometry by single-qubit dephasing

Sholeh Razavian, Claudia Benedetti, Matteo Bina +2

We address the dephasing dynamics of a qubit as an effective process to estimate the temperature of its environment. Our scheme is inherently quantum, since it exploits the sensiti…
