Detector Correlations and Null Tests of the Coherent State Hypothesis
Sreenath K. Manikandan, Frank Wilczek
We discuss the statistics of correlations between two resonant detectors. We show that this allows simple null tests of the coherent state hypothesis, free of vacuum (quantum) nois…
Squeezed Quasinormal Modes from Nonlinear Gravitational Effects
Sreenath K. Manikandan, Frank Wilczek
We estimate the degree of squeezing possible in gravitational waves due to nonlinear gravitational effects in the weakly perturbative regime. Using the predicted amplitude ratios f…
Complementary Probes of Gravitational Radiation States
Sreenath K. Manikandan, Frank Wilczek
We demonstrate that the statistical fluctuations in resonant radiation detectors operating in homodyne and heterodyne modes offers additional, complementary information to that obt…
Probing Quantum Structure in Gravitational Radiation
Sreenath K. Manikandan, Frank Wilczek
Gravitational radiation from known astrophysical sources is conventionally treated classically. This treatment corresponds, implicitly, to the hypothesis that a particular class of…
Testing the Coherent State Description of Radiation Fields
Sreenath K. Manikandan, Frank Wilczek
We propose simple quantitative criteria, based on counting statistics in resonant harmonic detectors, that probe the quantum mechanical character of radiation fields. They provide,…
Simple Realization Of The Fredkin Gate Using A Series Of Two-body Operators
H. F. Chau, F. Wilczek
The Fredkin three-bit gate is universal for computational logic, and is reversible. Classically, it is impossible to do universal computation using reversible two-bit gates only. H…
