Probing Macroscopic Quantum Superpositions with Nanorotors
Benjamin A. Stickler, Birthe Papendell, Stefan Kuhn +4
Whether quantum physics is universally valid is an open question with far-reaching implications. Intense research is therefore invested into testing the quantum superposition princ…
Quantum Angular Momentum Diffusion of Rigid Bodies
Birthe Papendell, Benjamin A. Stickler, Klaus Hornberger
We show how to describe the diffusion of the quantized angular momentum vector of an arbitrarily shaped rigid rotor as induced by its collisional interaction with an environment. W…
Spatio-Orientational Decoherence of Nanoparticles
Benjamin A. Stickler, Birthe Papendell, Klaus Hornberger
Motivated by trapping and cooling experiments with non-spherical nanoparticles, we discuss how their combined rotational and translational quantum state is affected by the interact…
