Suppressing Intrinsic Spin-Phonon Errors in Trapped-Ion Quantum Simulation
Dylan Sheils, James Wang, Or Katz
Trapped-ion quantum simulators realize programmable spin models through phonon-mediated interactions. For Hamiltonians with noncommuting terms, however, the same phonon bus generat…
String-Breaking Dynamics in Quantum Adiabatic and Diabatic Processes
Federica Maria Surace, Alessio Lerose, Or Katz +10
Confinement prohibits isolation of color charges, e.g., quarks, in nature via a process called string breaking: the separation of two charges results in an increase in the energy o…
Coherent polarization self-rotation
Roy Shaham, Orr Meron, Or Katz +2
We introduce and study coherent polarization self-rotation (CPSR), a two-photon light-matter interaction in dense alkali-metal vapors that enables both narrowband optical spectrosc…
Floquet control of interactions and edge states in a programmable quantum simulator
Or Katz, Lei Feng, Diego Porras +1
Quantum simulators based on trapped ions enable the study of spin systems and models with rich dynamical phenomena. The Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model for fermions in one dimensi…
Hybrid digital-analog protocols for simulating quantum multi-body interactions
Or Katz, Alexander Schuckert, Tianyi Wang +3
While quantum simulators promise to explore quantum many-body physics beyond classical computation, their capabilities are limited by the available native interactions in the hardw…
Constraints on axion-like dark matter from a SERF comagnetometer
Itay M. Bloch, Roy Shaham, Yonit Hochberg +3
Ultralight axion-like particles are well-motivated relics that might compose the cosmological dark matter and source anomalous time-dependent magnetic fields. We report on terrestr…
