Simulating accelerated atoms coupled to a quantum field
M. del Rey, D. Porras, E. Martin-Martinez
We show an analogy between static quantum emitters coupled to a single mode of a quantum field and accelerated Unruh-DeWitt detectors. We envision a way to simulate a variety of re…
Localization of phonons in ion traps with controlled quantum disorder
A. Bermudez, M. A. Martin-Delgado, D. Porras
We show that the vibrations of a chain of trapped ions offer an interesting route to explore the physics of disordered quantum systems. By preparing the internal state of the ions…
Towards electron-electron entanglement in Penning traps
L. Lamata, D. Porras, J. I. Cirac +2
Entanglement of isolated elementary particles other than photons has not yet been achieved. We show how building blocks demonstrated with one trapped electron might be used to make…
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…
Collective generation of quantum states of light by entangled atoms
D. Porras, J. I. Cirac
We present a theoretical framework to describe the collective emission of light by entangled atomic states. Our theory applies to the low excitation regime, where most of the atoms…
Quantum Phases of Trapped Ions in an Optical Lattice
Roman Schmied, Tommaso Roscilde, Valentin Murg +2
We propose loading trapped ions into microtraps formed by an optical lattice. For harmonic microtraps, the Coulomb coupling of the spatial motions of neighboring ions can be used t…
