Kavli Affiliate: Leonardo Dicarlo | First 5 Authors: Hany Ali, Jorge Marques, Ophelia Crawford, Joonas Majaniemi, Marc Serra-Peralta | Summary: Quantum error correction enables the preservation of logical qubits with a lower logical error rate than the physical error rate, with performance depending on the decoding method. Traditional error decoding approaches, relying on the binarization […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Alberto Bordin, Chun-Xiao Liu, Tom Dvir, Francesco Zatelli, Sebastiaan L. D. ten Haaf | Summary: Majorana zero modes (MZMs) are non-Abelian excitations predicted to emerge at the edges of topological superconductors. One proposal for realizing a topological superconductor in one dimension involves a chain of spinless fermions, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Chien-An Wang, Valentin John, Hanifa Tidjani, Cécile X. Yu, Alexander Ivlev | Summary: Qubits that can be efficiently controlled are pivotal in the development of scalable quantum hardware. Resonant control is commonly embraced to execute high-fidelity quantum gates but demands integration of high-frequency oscillating signals and results […]
Kavli Affiliate: Simon Groblacher | First 5 Authors: Alexander Rolf Korsch, Niccolò Fiaschi, Simon Gröblacher, , | Summary: In recent years, nanomechanical oscillators in thin films of superfluid helium have attracted attention in the field of optomechanics due to their exceptionally low mechanical dissipation and optical scattering. Mechanical excitations in superfluid thin films – so-called […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herre S. J. Van Der Zant | First 5 Authors: Alessio Vegliante, Saleta Fernandez, Ricardo Ortiz, Manuel Vilas-Varela, Thomas Baum | Summary: Open-shell polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) represent promising building blocks for carbon-based functional magnetic materials. Their magnetic properties stem from the presence of unpaired electrons localized in radical states of $pi$ character. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael Wimmer | First 5 Authors: Juan Daniel Torres Luna, A. Mert Bozkurt, Michael Wimmer, Chun-Xiao Liu, | Summary: Connecting quantum dots through Andreev bound states in a semiconductor-superconductor hybrid provides a platform to create a Kitaev chain. Interestingly, in a double quantum dot, a pair of poor man’s Majorana zero modes can […]
Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | First 5 Authors: Natalia Chepiga, , , , | Summary: We study dimerization transitions in a frustrated spin-3 chain with next-nearest neighbor and three-site interactions. We show that two independent coupling constants of the model are sufficient to fine-tune the system to the critical point in the Wess-Zumino-Witten SU(2)$_6$ universality […]

Kavli Affiliate: Stephanie Wehner | First 5 Authors: Lars Talsma, Álvaro G. Iñesta, Stephanie Wehner, , | Summary: Small interconnected quantum processors can collaborate to tackle quantum computational problems that typically demand more capable devices. These linked processors, referred to as quantum nodes, can use shared entangled states to execute nonlocal operations. As a consequence, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Gijsje H. Koenderink | First 5 Authors: Ruben C. Boot, Anouk van der Net, Christos Gogou, Pranav Mehta, Dimphna H. Meijer | Summary: Tissue surface tension influences cell sorting and tissue fusion. Earlier mechanical studies suggest that multicellular spheroids actively reinforce their surface tension with applied force. Here we study this open question […]
