Synthesizing Spectra from 3D Radiation Hydrodynamic Models of Massive Stars Using Monte Carlo Radiation Transport

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: William C. Schultz, Benny T. H. Tsang, Lars Bildsten, Yan-Fei Jiang, | Summary: Observations indicate that turbulent motions are present on most massive star surfaces. Starting from the observed phenomena of spectral lines with widths much larger than thermal broadening (e.g. micro- and macroturbulence) to the detection […]

Cross Entropy Benchmark for Measurement-Induced Phase Transitions

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Yaodong Li, Yijian Zou, Paolo Glorioso, Ehud Altman, Matthew P. A. Fisher | Summary: We investigate the prospects of employing the linear cross-entropy to experimentally access measurement-induced phase transitions (MIPT) without requiring any postselection of quantum trajectories. For two random circuits that are identical in […]

Measurement-Prepared Quantum Criticality: from Ising model to gauge theory, and beyond

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Jong Yeon Lee, Wenjie Ji, Zhen Bi, Matthew P. A. Fisher, | Summary: Measurements allow efficient preparation of interesting quantum many-body states exhibiting long-range, topological, or fractonic orders. Here, we prove that the so-called conformal quantum critical points (CQCP) can be obtained by performing general […]

Decoding Measurement-Prepared Quantum Phases and Transitions: from Ising model to gauge theory, and beyond

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Jong Yeon Lee, Wenjie Ji, Zhen Bi, Matthew P. A. Fisher, | Summary: Measurements allow efficient preparation of interesting quantum many-body states with long-range entanglement, conditioned on additional transformations based on measurement outcomes. Here, we demonstrate that the so-called conformal quantum critical points (CQCP) can […]

Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA): Time-Dependent Convection, Energy Conservation, Automatic Differentiation, and Infrastructure

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Adam S. Jermyn, Evan B. Bauer, Josiah Schwab, R. Farmer, Warrick H. Ball | Summary: We update the capabilities of the open-knowledge software instrument Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA). The new auto_diff module implements automatic differentiation in MESA, an enabling capability that alleviates the need […]

Random Quantum Circuits

Kavli Affiliate: Matthew P. A. Fisher | First 5 Authors: Matthew P. A. Fisher, Vedika Khemani, Adam Nahum, Sagar Vijay, | Summary: Quantum circuits — built from local unitary gates and local measurements — are a new playground for quantum many-body physics and a tractable setting to explore universal collective phenomena far-from-equilibrium. These models have […]

3D Hydrodynamics of Pre-supernova Outbursts in Convective Red Supergiant Envelopes

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Benny T. -H. Tsang, Daniel Kasen, Lars Bildsten, , | Summary: Eruptive mass loss likely produces the energetic outbursts observed from some massive stars before they undergo core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe). The resulting dense circumstellar medium (CSM) may also cause the subsequent SNe to be observed as Type […]
