Quantum states interrogation using a pre-shaped free electron wavefunction

Kavli Affiliate: Amnon Yariv | First 5 Authors: Bin Zhang, Du Ran, Reuven Ianconescu, Aharon Friedman, Jacob Scheuer | Summary: We present a comprehensive theory for interrogation of the quantum state of a two-level system (TLS) based on a free-electron bound-electron resonant interaction scheme. The scheme comprises free electrons, whose quantum electron wavefunction is pre-shaped […]

An Architecture for Meeting Quality-of-Service Requirements in Multi-User Quantum Networks

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Matthew Skrzypczyk, Stephanie Wehner, , , | Summary: Quantum communication can enhance internet technology by enabling novel applications that are provably impossible classically. The successful execution of such applications relies on the generation of quantum entanglement between different users of the network which meets stringent performance requirements. […]

Detection of a Parsec-Scale Jet in a Radio-Quiet Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy with Highly Accreting Supermassive Black Hole

Kavli Affiliate: Ran Wang | First 5 Authors: Su Yao, Xiaolong Yang, Minfeng Gu, Tao An, Jun Yang | Summary: The jet in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is a key ingredient in understanding the co-evolution of galaxies and their central supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Unfortunately, the mechanism of jet launching and collimation is still elusive. […]

Magnetic Field Universality of the Kondo Effect Revealed by Thermocurrent Spectroscopy

Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Chunwei Hsu, Theo A. Costi, David Vogel, Christina Wegeberg, Marcel Mayor | Summary: Probing the universal low temperature magnetic field scaling of Kondo-correlated quantum dots via electrical conductance has proved to be experimentally challenging. Here, we show how to probe this in nonlinear […]

Enhanced monitoring of atmospheric methane from space over the Permian basin with hierarchical Bayesian inference

Kavli Affiliate: Kaisey Mandel | First 5 Authors: Clayton Roberts, Oliver Shorttle, Kaisey Mandel, Matthew Jones, Rutger Ijzermans | Summary: Methane is a strong greenhouse gas, with a higher radiative forcing per unit mass and shorter atmospheric lifetime than carbon dioxide. The remote sensing of methane in regions of industrial activity is a key step […]

Machine learning synthetic spectra for probabilistic redshift estimation: SYTH-Z

Kavli Affiliate: Katrin Heitmann | First 5 Authors: Nesar Ramachandra, Jonás Chaves-Montero, Alex Alarcon, Arindam Fadikar, Salman Habib | Summary: Photometric redshift estimation algorithms are often based on representative data from observational campaigns. Data-driven methods of this type are subject to a number of potential deficiencies, such as sample bias and incompleteness. Motivated by these […]

Nonrelativistic CFTs at Large Charge: Casimir Energy and Logarithmic Enhancements

Kavli Affiliate: Simeon Hellerman | First 5 Authors: Simeon Hellerman, Domenico Orlando, Vito Pellizzani, Susanne Reffert, Ian Swanson | Summary: The unitary Fermi gas, by virtue of its description as a nonrelativistic conformal field theory, has proven an interesting system by which the quantum properties of CFT can be held to experimental verification. Here, we […]
