Identification and optimal control strategies for the transversal splitting of ultra--cold Bose gases
Nikolaus Würkner, Yevhenii Kuriatnikov, Karthikeyan Kumaran +5
Splitting a Bose--Einstein condensate (BEC) is a key operation in fundamental physics experiments and emerging quantum technologies, where precise preparation of well--defined init…
Fast Coherent Splitting of Bose-Einstein Condensates
Yevhenii Kuriatnikov, Nikolaus Würkner, Karthikeyan Kumaran +6
Preparation of non-trivial quantum states without introducing unwanted excitations or decoherence remains a central challenge in utilizing ultracold atomic systems for quantum simu…
Roadmap on Quantum Thermodynamics
Steve Campbell, Irene D'Amico, Mario A. Ciampini +66
The last two decades has seen quantum thermodynamics become a well established field of research in its own right. In that time, it has demonstrated a remarkably broad applicabilit…
Optimal Sensing of Momentum Kicks with a Feedback-Controlled Nanomechanical Resonator
Kaspar Schmerling, Hajrudin Bešić, Andreas Kugi +2
External disturbances exciting a mechanical resonator can be exploited to gain information on the environment. Many of these interactions manifest as momentum kicks, such as the re…
Real-time optimal quantum control of mechanical motion at room temperature
Lorenzo Magrini, Philipp Rosenzweig, Constanze Bach +6
The ability to accurately control the dynamics of physical systems by measurement and feedback is a pillar of modern engineering. Today, the increasing demand for applied quantum t…
