Applications of quantum annealing to magnetic dipole hyperfine structure constants: First results beyond energies for atoms

We report the first results of the magnetic dipole hyperfine structure (HFS) constants of neutral $\mathrm{Li}$, Li-like $\mathrm{Be}$, neutral $\mathrm{Na}$, and Na-like $\mathrm{Mg}$ using a modified version of the Quantum Annealer Eigensolver (QAE) algorithm on D-Wave's quantum hardware. The results are benchmarked against relativistic configuration interaction with multiconfiguration Dirac Hartree-Fock (MCDHF) calculations using the General-purpose Relativistic Atomic Structure Package (GRASP), and simulated annealing. In our modified QAE, a zooming-and-sigma-annealing approach with a floating-point encoding scheme is adopted to estimate the ground-state eigenvalue and eigenvector of the relativistic Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian matrices ($H_{\mathrm{DC}}$) constructed from 11 or fewer configuration state functions (CSFs). For calculations with extended correlation orbital sets, we applied a CSF truncation scheme, retaining only CSFs (up to 12) that make significant contributions to the ground-state wavefunction. Our modified QAE precision is kept limited to three decimal places (up to 10 qubits). Hardware demonstrations on the D-Wave quantum processing unit (QPU) yielded results that were completely consistent with GRASP (at the chosen precision) in determining the magnetic dipole HFS constants, with accuracy varying across systems and $H_{\mathrm{DC}}$ matrix dimensions.

Two component quantum walk in one-dimensional lattice with hopping imbalance

We investigate the two-component quantum walk in one-dimensional lattice. We show that the inter-component interaction strength together with the hopping imbalance between the components exhibit distinct features in the quantum walk for different initial states. When the walkers are initially on the same site, both the slow and fast particles perform independent particle quantum walks when the interaction between them is weak. However, stronger inter-particle interactions result in quantum walks by the repulsively bound pair formed between the two particles. For different initial states when the walkers are on different sites initially, the quantum walk performed by the slow particle is almost independent of that of the fast particle, which exhibits reflected and transmitted components across the particle with large hopping strength for weak interactions. Beyond a critical value of the interaction strength, the wave function of the fast particle ceases to penetrate through the slow particle signalling a spatial phase separation. However, when the two particles are initially at the two opposite edges of the lattice, then the interaction facilitates the complete reflection of both of them from each other. We analyze the above mentioned features by examining various physical quantities such as the on-site density evolution, two-particle correlation functions and transmission coefficients.

CP violating effects in $^{210}$Fr and prospects for new physics beyond the Standard Model

We report theoretical results of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of $^{210}$Fr which arises from the interaction of the EDM of an electron with the internal electric field in an atom and the scalar-pseudoscalar electron-nucleus interaction; the two dominant sources of CP violation in this atom. Employing the relativistic coupled-cluster theory, we evaluate the enhancement factors for these two CP violating interactions to an accuracy of about 3% and analyze the contributions of the many-body effects. These two quantities in combination with the projected sensitivity of the $^{210}$Fr EDM experiment provide constraints on new physics beyond the Standard Model. Particularly, we demonstrate that their precise values are necessary to account for the effect of the bottom quark in models in which the Higgs sector is augmented by nonstandard Yukawa interactions such as the two-Higgs doublet model.

Random Phase Approximation For allowed and Parity Non-conserving Electric Dipole Transition Amplitudes and its connection with Many-Body Perturbation Theory and Coupled Cluster Theory

The connections between the Random Phase Approximation (RPA) and Many-Body Perturbation Theory (MBPT) and its all order generalisation, the Coupled- Cluster Theory (CCT) have been explored. Explicit expressions have been derived for the electric dipole amplitudes for allowed and forbidden transitions induced by the parity non-conserving neutral weak interaction. The Goldstone diagrams associated with the RPA terms in both cases are shown to arise in MBPT and CCT and the numerical verification of this relationship is made for the allowed electric dipole transitions.

The Parity Non-Conserving 3P0--1P1 E1 Transition Amplitude of the Atomic Yb

The atomic parity non-conservation(PNC) experiments has reached accuracies which have important implications for physics beyond the standard model. An optical rotation experiment to measure the atomic PNC of the 3P1(6s6p)--1P1(6s6p) in Yb was proposed recently. Our screened electron-electron coulomb potential multi-configuration Dirac-Fock calculation of th PNC induced E1 transition amplitude of this transition E1_PNC = -96.0 x 10^{-11}iea_0(-Q_W/N) of 171Yb is more than two orders of magnitude larger than E1_PNC(6s-7s) = -0.8991 x 10^{-11}iea_0(-Q_W/N) of 133Cs.

Coupled Electron Pair Approximation Calculation of the Electric Dipole Moment of Atomic Yb

The existence of a finite electric dipole moment (EDM) d_a of the closed-shell atom Yb implies parity and time reversal violations involving the nuclear sector. An important effect which can contribute to the Yb EDM is the tensor-pseudotensor electron-nucleus interaction characterized by the coupling constant C_T. Within the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics C_T=0, as this form of interaction is not allowed. If a finite d_a of Yb is observed in experiments, then an estimate of C_T can be obtained by combining with the theoretical calculations. A non-zero C_T implies physics beyond the standard model. In this paper we present the result of our ab initio calculation of the EDM Yb using different many-body methods.
