Axion like particles multi-parameter sensing

The search for the axion like particles (APLs)-one of the deepest puzzles in modern cosmology-may hold the key to understanding dark matter and dark energy. In this work, we introduce a setup taking advantage of the quantum metrology techniques to constrain the hypothetical mass and coupling constants of APLs by employing exotic pseudoscalar spin-spin interactions between fermions mediated by ALPs. A key advantage of our approach is the exploitation of position-dependent spin sensor results to the high sensitivity of the probe. To simultaneously investigate the axion mass and coupling constants, we invoke a multi-probe detection strategy. Through this strategy, we circumvent the singularity of the quantum Fisher information matrix as an ultimate upper bound on the sensitivity of any probe. For the axion masses in the range of $m_a {\le} 10^{-3} \text{eV}$, this setup can exclude values of axion coupling constants $g^e_pg^n_p$ down to $10^{-7}$.

Precision gravimetry via harnessing interaction-induced resonances in optical lattices

By confining a Bose-Einstein condensate in a vertical lattice subjected to a gravitational potential, we analyze the quantum Fisher information to determine its scaling with respect to time, system size and particle number. Our results reveal that in the localized phase, on-site interactions $U$ amplify the quantum Fisher information by a factor with respect to resonance condition $U=mh$ where $U$ is factor of gradient field amplitude $h$. This precision enhancement can be employed in gravitational acceleration measurements with a finite number of particles trapped in optical lattices.

Dephasing through Bremsstrahlung emission: insights from quantum Boltzmann equation

We investigate decoherence mechanisms in open quantum systems using quantum field theory techniques and the quantum Boltzmann equation. Specifically, we focus on decoherence through Bremsstrahlung emission, a fundamental process in quantum electrodynamics leading to coherence loss. By applying quantum field theory techniques and quantum Boltzmann equation, we model the fermion-photon interaction in the Stern-Gerlach interferometer and analyze the induced dephasing factor. Our approach offers significant advancements in understanding decoherence and its potential applications in quantum sensing and atomic interferometry. We demonstrate the accuracy of our method by comparing results to classical Bremsstrahlung.

Quantum Enhanced Sensitivity through Many-Body Bloch Oscillations

We investigate the sensing capacity of non-equilibrium dynamics in quantum systems exhibiting Bloch oscillations. By focusing on the resource efficiency of the probe, quantified by quantum Fisher information, we find different scaling behaviors in two different phases, namely localized and extended. Our results provide a quantitative ansatz for quantum Fisher information in terms of time, probe size, and the number of excitations. In the long-time regime, the quantum Fisher information is a quadratic function of time, touching the Heisenberg limit. The system size scaling drastically depends on the phase changing from quantum-enhanced scaling in the extended phase to size-independent behavior in the localized phase. Furthermore, increasing the number of excitations always enhances the precision of the probe, although, in the interacting systems the enhancement becomes less eminent than the non-interacting probes. This is due to the induced localization by increasing the interaction between the excitations. We show that a simple particle configuration measurement together with a maximum likelihood estimation can closely reach the ultimate precision limit in both single- and multi-particle probes.

Axion-Like Dark Matter Detection Using Stern-Gerlach Interferometer

Quantum sensors based on the superposition of neutral atoms are promising for sensing the nature of dark matter (DM). In this study, we utilize the Stern-Gerlach (SG) interferometer configuration to seek a novel method for the detection of detect axion-like particles (ALPs). Using an SG interferometer, we create a spatial quantum superposition of neutral atoms such as $^{3}$He and $^{87}$Rb. It is shown that the interaction of ALPs with this superposition induces a relative phase between superposed quantum components. We use the quantum Boltzmann equation (QBE) to introduce a first-principles analysis that describes the temporal evolution of the sensing system. The QBE approach employs quantum field theory (QFT) to highlight the role of the quantum nature of the interactions with the quantum systems. The resulting exclusion area demonstrates that our scheme allows for the exclusion of a range of ALP mass in the range of $10^{-10}\leq m_{a}\leq 10^{2}\,\mathrm{eV}$ and ALP-atom coupling constant in the range $10^{-13}\leq g_{ae}\leq 10^{0}$.

Quantum Boltzmann equation for fermions: An attempt to calculate the NMR relaxation and decoherence times using quantum field theory techniques

Extracting macroscopic properties of a system from microscopic interactions has always been an interesting topic with the most diverse applications. Here, we use the quantum Boltzmann equation to investigate the density matrix evolution of a system of nucleons. Using the quantum field theory tools for constructing the density matrix operators and calculating the interactions is the main advantage of this equation. The right-hand side of this equation involves forward scattering and usual collision terms. As examples of application, we calculate the standard Bloch equations for the nucleon system in the presence of a constant and an oscillating magnetic field from the forward scattering term. We find the longitudinal and transverse (decoherence) relaxation times from the collision term by considering the nucleon-nucleon scattering.
