Simple Self-calibrating Polarimeter for Measuring the Stokes Parameters of Light
Vitaly Wirthl, Cristian D. Panda, Paul W. Hess +1
A simple, self-calibrating, rotating-waveplate polarimeter is largely insensitive to light intensity fluctuations and is shown to be useful for determining the Stokes parameters of…
Observation of a prethermal discrete time crystal
Antonis Kyprianidis, Francisco Machado, William Morong +9
The conventional framework for defining and understanding phases of matter requires thermodynamic equilibrium. Extensions to non-equilibrium systems have led to surprising insights…
Programmable Quantum Simulations of Spin Systems with Trapped Ions
C. Monroe, W. C. Campbell, L. -M. Duan +10
Laser-cooled and trapped atomic ions form an ideal standard for the simulation of interacting quantum spin models. Effective spins are represented by appropriate internal energy le…
Quantum Approximate Optimization of the Long-Range Ising Model with a Trapped-Ion Quantum Simulator

Quantum computers and simulators may offer significant advantages over their classical counterparts, providing insights into quantum many-body systems and possibly improving perfor…
Cryogenic Trapped-Ion System for Large Scale Quantum Simulation
G. Pagano, P. W. Hess, H. B. Kaplan +9
We present a cryogenic ion trapping system designed for large scale quantum simulation of spin models. Our apparatus is based on a segmented-blade ion trap enclosed in a 4 K cryost…
Observation of a Many-Body Dynamical Phase Transition with a 53-Qubit Quantum Simulator
J. Zhang, G. Pagano, P. W. Hess +6
A quantum simulator is a restricted class of quantum computer that controls the interactions between quantum bits in a way that can be mapped to certain difficult quantum many-body…
Non-thermalization in trapped atomic ion spin chains
P. W. Hess, P. Becker, H. B. Kaplan +10
Linear arrays of trapped and laser cooled atomic ions are a versatile platform for studying emergent phenomena in strongly-interacting many-body systems. Effective spins are encode…
A self-calibrating polarimeter to measure Stokes parameters
V. Wirthl, C. D. Panda, P. W. Hess +2
An easily constructed and operated polarimeter precisely determines the relative Stokes parameters that characterize the polarization of laser light. The polarimeter is calibrated…
Methods, Analysis, and the Treatment of Systematic Errors for the Electron Electric Dipole Moment Search in Thorium Monoxide
ACME Collaboration, Jacob Baron, Wes C. Campbell +15
We recently set a new limit on the electric dipole moment of the electron (eEDM) (J. Baron et al., ACME collaboration, Science 343 (2014), 269-272), which represented an order-of-m…
Observation of a Discrete Time Crystal
J. Zhang, P. W. Hess, A. Kyprianidis +9
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is a fundamental concept in many areas of physics, ranging from cosmology and particle physics to condensed matter. A prime example is the breaking of…
Observation of Prethermalization in Long-Range Interacting Spin Chains
B. Neyenhuis, J. Smith, A. C. Lee +6
Statistical mechanics can predict thermal equilibrium states for most classical systems, but for an isolated quantum system there is no general understanding on how equilibrium sta…
Engineering Large Stark Shifts for Control of Individual Clock State Qubits
Aaron C. Lee, Jacob Smith, Philip Richerme +4
In quantum information science, the external control of qubits must be balanced with the extreme isolation of the qubits from the environment. Atomic qubit systems typically mitiga…
STIRAP preparation of a coherent superposition of ThO states for an improved electron EDM measurement

Experimental searches for the electron electric dipole moment (EDM) probe new physics beyond the Standard Model. The current best EDM limit was set by the ACME Collaboration [Scien…
Many-body localization in a quantum simulator with programmable random disorder
Jacob Smith, Aaron Lee, Philip Richerme +6
When a system thermalizes it loses all local memory of its initial conditions. This is a general feature of open systems and is well described by equilibrium statistical mechanics.…
