Probing the dynamic structure factor of a neutral Fermi superfluid along the BCS-BEC crossover using atomic impurity qubits

Mark T. Mitchison, Tomi H. Johnson, Dieter Jaksch

We study an impurity atom trapped by an anharmonic potential, immersed within a cold atomic Fermi gas with attractive interactions that realizes the crossover from a Bardeen-Cooper…

Nondestructive Probing of Means, Variances, and Correlations of Ultracold-Atomic-System Densities via Qubit Impurities

Thomas J. Elliott, Tomi H. Johnson

We show how impurity atoms can measure moments of ultracold atomic gas densities, using the example of bosons in a one-dimensional lattice. This builds on a body of work regarding…

Hubbard model for atomic impurities bound by the vortex lattice of a rotating BEC

T. H. Johnson, Y. Yuan, W. Bao +3

We investigate cold bosonic impurity atoms trapped in a vortex lattice formed by condensed bosons of another species. We describe the dynamics of the impurities by a bosonic Hubbar…

Thermometry of ultracold atoms via non-equilibrium work distributions

T. H. Johnson, F. Cosco, M. T. Mitchison +2

Estimating the temperature of a cold quantum system is difficult. Usually, one measures a well-understood thermal state and uses that prior knowledge to infer its temperature. In c…

Non-destructive selective probing of phononic excitations in a cold Bose gas using impurities

D. Hangleiter, M. T. Mitchison, T. H. Johnson +3

We introduce a detector that selectively probes the phononic excitations of a cold Bose gas. The detector is composed of a single impurity atom confined by a double-well potential,…

Capturing exponential variance using polynomial resources: applying tensor networks to non-equilibrium stochastic processes

T. H. Johnson, T. J. Elliott, S. R. Clark +1

Estimating the expected value of an observable appearing in a non-equilibrium stochastic process usually involves sampling. If the observable's variance is high, many samples are r…
