Spatial superposition for a two-dimensional matter-wave interferometer in an inverted harmonic potential with gyroscopic rotational stability
Ryan Rizaldy, Tian Zhou, Run Zhou +1
This study presents a mathematical model of the spatial and rotational motion of a nanodiamond in an inverted harmonic potential to create a macroscopic quantum spatial superpositi…
A Spin-Based Pathway to Testing the Quantum Nature of Gravity
Sougato Bose, Anupam Mazumdar, Roger Penrose +52
A key open problem in physics is the correct way to combine gravity (described by general relativity) with everything else (described by quantum mechanics). This problem suggests t…
Spin contrast, finite temperature, and noise in matter-wave interferometer
Tian Zhou, Ryan Rizaldy, Martine Schut +1
In this paper, we will show how finite-temperature corrections and spin-dependent/independent noise will affect the contrast in a matter-wave interferometer, especially with massiv…
Rotational stability in nanorotor and spin contrast in one-loop interferometry in the Stern-Gerlach setup
Ryan Rizaldy, Tian Zhou, Sougato Bose +1
The rotation of a nanoparticle in a quantum system has many applications, from theory to experiments. This paper will treat nanoparticle rotational dynamics for spin-embedded nanor…
