QuTiP: An open-source Python framework for the dynamics of open quantum systems
J. R. Johansson, P. D. Nation, Franco Nori
We present an object-oriented open-source framework for solving the dynamics of open quantum systems written in Python. Arbitrary Hamiltonians, including time-dependent systems, ma…
Observation of the Dynamical Casimir Effect in a Superconducting Circuit
C. M. Wilson, G. Johansson, A. Pourkabirian +4
One of the most surprising predictions of modern quantum theory is that the vacuum of space is not empty. In fact, quantum theory predicts that it teems with virtual particles flit…
Stimulating uncertainty: Amplifying the quantum vacuum with superconducting circuits
P. D. Nation, J. R. Johansson, M. P. Blencowe +1
The ability to generate particles from the quantum vacuum is one of the most profound consequences of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. Although the significance of vacuum fluctu…
