An Operational Quantum Field Theoretic Model for Gravitationally Induced Entanglement
Jackson Yant, Miles Blencowe
We develop a quantum field-theoretic model of gravitationally induced entanglement (GIE) between two massive objects in spatial superposition. The masses are described as excitatio…
Mechanically Generating Entangled Photons from the Vacuum: A Microwave Circuit-Acoustic Resonator Analogue of the Unruh Effect
Hui Wang, M. P. Blencowe, C. M. Wilson +1
We consider a model for an oscillatory, relativistic accelerating photodetector inside a cavity and show that the entangled photon pair production from the vacuum (Unruh effect) ca…
Probing the quantum coherence of a nanomechanical resonator using a superconducting qubit: I. Echo scheme
A. D. Armour, M. P. Blencowe
We propose a scheme in which the quantum coherence of a nanomechanical resonator can be probed using a superconducting qubit. We consider a mechanical resonator coupled capacitivel…
Probing the quantum coherence of a nanomechanical resonator using a superconducting qubit II: Implementation
M. P. Blencowe, A. D. Armour
We describe a possible implementation of the nanomechanical quantum superposition generation and detection scheme described in the preceding, companion paper [Armour A D and Blenco…
Decoherence and Recoherence in a Vibrating RF SQUID
Eyal Buks, M. P. Blencowe
We study an RF SQUID, in which a section of the loop is a freely suspended beam that is allowed to oscillate mechanically. The coupling between the RF SQUID and the mechanical reso…
