Jukka Kiukas and Andreas Ruschhaupt, "Fisher information for the momentum parameter from quantum many-particle arrival time measurements", New Journal of Physics 27,
We formulate a quantum arrival time measurement process for a Bosonic many-particle system, with the aim of extracting statistical information on single-particle properties. The arrival time is based on a dynamical multi-particle absorption model in the Fock space, and we consider systems in coherent and incoherent mixtures of N-particle states. We find the resulting probability distributions for arrival time sequences, which we consider as parametric models for the statistical inference of single-particle parameters, and derive a tractable expression for the associated (classical) Fisher information for a general single particle parameter. Subsequently focusing on the concrete case of the momentum parameter of a 1D particle, we consider the idealised limits of a point (Dirac delta) detector and an infinite particle system forming a spatially uniform 鈥榖eam鈥. We observe that even though no information remains in the spatial distribution, the single-particle momentum is indeed identifiable from the arrival time data, even in the limit of 鈥榮parse beams鈥 of vanishing particle density, where we obtain simple analytical form for the Fisher information, which, interestingly, coincides with the one obtained from a hypothetical time-stationary detection model. Our results contribute to the fundamental understanding of temporal measurement data arising from quantum systems consisting of freely evolving particles.
- Andreas Ruschhaupt and Juan Gonzalo Muga, "Maxwell demon no-go theorem for multichannel scattering",
Recent implementations of Maxwell demons and other devices exhibiting asymmetric response to particles incident from opposite directions have raised conceptual and practical interest. According to quantum-scattering-theory selection rules, demons necessitate, among other conditions, non-local and non-Hermitian potentials. These potentials arise as effective interactions for a single asymptotic channel within a multichannel (large, Hermitian) system. However we find that, regardless of the complexity of the large Hamiltonian, the demon behavior cannot be approached in this way. We discuss the consequences and possible resolutions of the ensuing paradox. We also introduce and examine a parameter to quantify the distance to demon behavior and propose a way to construct devices as close to a demonic behaviour as possible in a quantum-optical setup. -
Manuel Odelli, Andreas Ruschhaupt, Vladimir M. Stojanovic, "Enhanced twist-and-turn dynamics of spin squeezing in internal bosonic Josephson junctions",
The twist-and-turn dynamics of spin squeezing results from the interplay of the (nonlinear) one-axis-twisting- and the (linear) transverse-field turning term in the underlying Hamiltonian, both with constant (time-independent) respective coupling strengths. Using the methods of shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) and their recently proposed enhanced version (eSTA), we demonstrate here that dynamics of this type can be utilized for a fast and robust preparation of spin-squeezed states in internal bosonic Josephson junctions -- condensates of cold bosonic atoms in two different internal (hyperfine) states (single-boson modes).
Assuming that the initial state of this system is the coherent spin state with all the bosons in the equal superposition of the two single-boson modes and that the nonlinear-coupling strength in this system remains constant, we set out to determine the time-dependence of the linear-coupling strength using the STA and eSTA approaches. We then quantitatively characterize the modified twist-and-turn dynamics in this system by evaluating the coherent spin-squeezing- and number-squeezing parameters, as well as the fidelity of the target spin-squeezed states.
In this manner, we show that the eSTA approach allows for a particularly robust experimental realization of strongly spin-squeezed states in this system, consistently outperforming its adiabatic and STA-based counterparts, even for systems with several hundred particles. - Muhammad S. Hasan, Thom谩s Fogarty, Jing Li, Andreas Ruschhaupt, Thomas Busch, "High fidelity control of a many-body Tonks--Girardeau gas with an effective mean-field approach", ;
Shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) are powerful tools that can be used to control quantum systems with high fi- delity. They work particularly well for single particle and noninteracting systems which can be described exactly and which possess invariant or self-similar dynamics. However, finding an exact STA for strongly correlated many-body systems can be difficult, as their complex dynamics may not be easily described, especially for larger systems that do not possess self-similar solutions. Here, we design STAs for one-dimensional bosonic gas in the Tonks-Girardeau limit by using a mean-field approach that succinctly captures the strong interaction effects through a quintic nonlinear term in the Schr枚dinger equation. We show that for the case of the harmonic oscillator with a time-dependent trap frequency the mean-field approach works exactly and recovers the well-known STA from literature. To highlight the robustness of our approach we also show that it works effectively for anharmonic potentials, achieving higher fidelities than other typical control techniques. - Jing Li, E. Ya. Sherman, Andreas Ruschhaupt, "Quantum control of classical motion: piston dynamics in a Rabi-coupled Bose-Einstein condensate",
We explore the dynamics of a hybrid classical-quantum system consisting of a classical piston and a self-interacting pseudospin 1/2 Bose-Einstein condensate with a time-dependent Rabi coupling. We investigate the mechanical work produced by the piston moving as a result of the quantum pressure of the condensate. The time-dependent Rabi field redistributes the condensate density between the spin components and, as a result, causes a time dependent pressure acting on the piston. Correspondingly, the motion of the piston produces quantum evolution of the condensate mass- and spin density profiles. We show how by optimised design of the time-dependent direction of the Rabi field, one can control position and velocity of the piston. - Manuel Odelli, Vladimir M. Stojanovic, Andreas Ruschhaupt, "Spin squeezing in internal bosonic Josephson junctions via enhanced shortcuts to adiabaticity", ;
We investigate a time-efficient and robust preparation of spin-squeezed states -- a class of states of interest for quantum-enhanced metrology--in internal bosonic Josephson junctions with a time-dependent nonlinear coupling strength between atoms in two different hyperfine states. We treat this state-preparation problem, which had previously been addressed using shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA), using the recently proposed analytical modification of this class of quantum-control protocols that became known as the enhanced STA (eSTA) method. We characterize the state-preparation process by evaluating the time dependence of the coherent spin-squeezing and number-squeezing parameters and the target-state fidelity. We show that the state-preparation times obtained using the eSTA method compare favourably to those found in previously proposed approaches. We also demonstrate that the increased robustness of the eSTA approach -- compared to its STA counterpart -- leads to additional advantages for potential experimental realizations of strongly spin-squeezed states in bosonic Josephson junctions.
