Quantum Digital Simulation of Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics: Insights from Superconducting and Trapped Ion Quantum Testbeds

Posted by dbos Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Irfan Siddiqi | First 5 Authors: Alex H. Rubin, Brian Marinelli, Victoria A. Norman, Zainab Rizvi, Ashlyn D. Burch | Summary: A leading application of quantum computers is the efficient simulation of large unitary quantum systems. Extending this advantage to the study of open Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics (CQED) systems could enable the use […]

INvestigations of massive Filaments ANd sTar formation (INFANT). I. Core Identification and Core Mass Function

Posted by dbos Peking

Kavli Affiliate: Ke Wang | First 5 Authors: Yu Cheng, Xing Lu, Patricio Sanhueza, Hauyu Baobab Liu, Qizhou Zhang | Summary: Filamentary structures are ubiquitously found in high-mass star-forming clouds. To investigate the relationship between filaments and star formation, we carry out the INFANT (INvestigations of massive Filaments ANd sTar formation) survey, a multi-scale, multi-wavelength […]

Leveraging both faces of polar semiconductor wafers for functional devices

Posted by dbos Cornell

Kavli Affiliate: Grace Xing | First 5 Authors: Len van Deurzen, Eungkyun Kim, Naomi Pieczulewski, Zexuan Zhang, Anna Feduniewicz-Zmuda | Summary: Unlike non-polar semiconductors such as silicon, the broken inversion symmetry of the wide bandgap semiconductor gallium nitride leads to a large electronic polarization along a unique crystal axis. This makes the two surfaces of […]

Pymablock: an algorithm and a package for quasi-degenerate perturbation theory

Posted by dbos Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Anton R. Akhmerov | First 5 Authors: Isidora Araya Day, Sebastian Miles, Hugo K. Kerstens, Daniel Varjas, Anton R. Akhmerov | Summary: A common technique in the study of complex quantum-mechanical systems is to reduce the number of degrees of freedom in the Hamiltonian by using quasi-degenerate perturbation theory. While the Schrieffer–Wolff transformation […]

Metropolitan-scale heralded entanglement of solid-state qubits

Posted by dbos Delft

Kavli Affiliate: Ronald Hanson | First 5 Authors: Arian J. Stolk, Kian L. van der Enden, Marie-Christine Slater, Ingmar te Raa-Derckx, Pieter Botma | Summary: A key challenge towards future quantum internet technology is connecting quantum processors at metropolitan scale. Here, we report on heralded entanglement between two independently operated quantum network nodes separated by […]

The black hole low mass X-ray binary V404 Cygni is part of a wide hierarchical triple, and formed without a kick

Posted by dbos MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Kevin B. Burdge, Kareem El-Badry, Erin Kara, Claude Canizares, Deepto Chakrabarty | Summary: Evidence suggests that when compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars form, they may receive a “natal kick,” where the stellar remnant gains momentum. Observational evidence for neutron star kicks is substantial, […]
