Correlated Quantum Sensing at the Seemingly Classical Limit

K. P. Athulya, Sreenath K. Manikandan

It is a difficult task to detect the indivisible quanta of weakly interacting radiation fields, and even more challenging to probe their quantum statistics. Nevertheless, if barely…

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…

Quantum Sensing with Joint Emitter-Fluorescence Measurements

Yuliya Bilinskaya, Sreenath K. Manikandan

We present an analytically tractable model of a driven quantum harmonic emitter, such as an oscillating charged dipole, emitting radiation via resonance fluorescence. With this mod…

Stimulated absorption of single gravitons: First light on quantum gravity

Victoria Shenderov, Mark Kanex, Thomas Beitel +3

In a recent work we showed that the detection of the exchange of a single graviton between a massive quantum resonator and a gravitational wave can be achieved. Key to this ability…

Revealing the fuel of a quantum continuous measurement-based refrigerator

Cyril Elouard, Sreenath K. Manikandan, Andrew N. Jordan +1

While quantum measurements have been shown to constitute a resource for operating quantum thermal machines, the nature of the energy exchanges involved in the interaction between s…

Signatures of coherent initial ensembles on all work moments

Pranay Nayak, Sreenath K. Manikandan, Tan Van Vu +1

Standard treatments of quantum work using projective energy measurements erase initial coherence and alter the dynamics, thereby failing to capture the thermodynamic effects of coh…
