Pulsed single-photon magnetometry with a $Λ$-type three-level system: near-optimal frequency-resolved photon counting

We investigate pulsed single-photon magnetometry with a Zeeman-sensitive $Λ$-type three-level system driven by a classical control field. We derive the asymptotic output state and decompose its quantum Fisher information into photon-loss, spectral-intensity, and spectral-phase contributions. Environmental coupling reshapes the scattering response and can increase magnetic-field information. At critical coupling, real-frequency zeros of the scattering amplitude redistribute information toward measurable spectral intensity, allowing frequency-resolved photon counting to capture nearly all of the magnetic-field information encoded in the output state when the zeros lie within the pulse bandwidth. For long Gaussian pulses with a smooth, nonzero central-frequency scattering amplitude, the additional spectral-intensity contribution and residual spectral-phase information gap decrease as $T^{-2}$ or faster.

Charging of a Quantum Battery by a Two-Photon Quantum Pulse

We investigate the charging of a harmonic-oscillator quantum battery by a propagating two-photon quantum pulse coupled through a two-level-system charger. Excitation-number conservation reduces the dynamics to a sequential response of the first and second excitation sectors, whose effective non-Hermitian generators exhibit two exceptional points separating overdamped, mixed, and underdamped regimes. We derive the exact full-charging amplitude and the response-matched two-photon temporal mode that achieves perfect charging in the ideal resonant single-channel model. For experimentally accessible Gaussian pulses, moderate temporal anticorrelation or a finite photon delay can enhance charging, whereas positive correlations generally suppress it. States with equal Schmidt number can nevertheless show different charging efficiencies, demonstrating that temporal-mode structure and response matching, rather than nonseparability alone, determine charging performance.

Charging of a Quantum Battery by a Single-Photon Quantum Pulse

We study a minimal model for charging a quantum battery consisting of a two-level system (TLS) acting as a charger, coupled to a harmonic oscillator that serves as the quantum battery. A single-photon quantum pulse of light excites the TLS, which subsequently transfers its excitation to the isolated battery. The TLS may also decay into the electromagnetic environment. We obtain analytical solutions for the dynamics of the battery and determine the optimal pulse shape that maximizes the stored energy. The optimal pulse saturates a universal bound for the stored energy, determined by the TLS decay rates into the pulse and the environment. Furthermore, we derive the minimum charging time and establish a quantum speed limit at the exceptional point, where a critical transition occurs in the system's dynamics. We also present analytical expressions for the charging power and investigate the pulse duration that maximizes it.

Dressed Energy Levels in Strongly Interacting Atoms

We investigate the effect of strong interaction in the dressed energy levels of the two level emitters. Strong dipole-dipole interactions give rise to new sidebands in the fluorescence spectrum due to specific couplings among the collective dressed levels which in turn depends on the spatial configuration of atoms. These couplings are the main responsible for the frequencies and variety of sidebands. We explain the general method for finding the dressed energy levels for a system of any number of strongly coupled atoms and we solve this problem for two different spatial configurations of three coupled two-level emitters. We show that the coupling among dressed levels and consequently energies and number of sidebands in the fluorescence spectrum are different for each configuration. Thus the fluorescence spectrum of strongly interacting atoms contains information about the number and configuration of atoms.

Shear Viscosity in the Strong Interaction Regime of a p-wave Superfluid Fermi Gas

The $p$-wave superfluid state is a promising spin-triplet and non $s$-wave pairing state in an ultracold Fermi gas. In this work we study the low-temperature shear viscosity of a one-component $p$-wave superfluid Fermi gas, by means of Kubo formalism. Our study is done in the strong-coupling limit where Fermi superfluid reduces into a system of composite bosons. Taking into account ${{p}_{x}}$-wave Cooper channel in the self-energy, the viscous relaxation rates are determined. The relaxation rates related to these interactions are calculated as a function of temperature. Their temperature dependence is different from the $s$-wave superfluid Fermi gas, and this is due to the anisotropic pairing interaction in the $p$-wave superfluid. Our results contribute to understand how this anisotropy affects transport properties of this unconventional superfluid Fermi gas in low temperature limit.

Martingale Strategy for Modeling Quantum Adiabatic Evolution

We propose a strategy for modeling the behavior of an adiabatic quantum computer described by an Ising Hamiltonian with $N$ sites and the coordination number $Z$. The method is based on the $1/Z$ expansion for the density matrix of the system. In each order, the ground state energy is found neglecting the higher-order correlations between the sites, as long as the set of equations remains non-singular. The conditions of the appearance of a singularity, equivalent to the disappearance of energy gap in the given approximation, can be directly obtained from the equations. Then the next order in the expansion must be used, at the price of an $N$-fold increase in computational resources. This "martingale" strategy allows reducing the computational costs to a power of $N$ rather than $2^N$, with a finite probability of success. The strategy is illustrated by the case of a two-spin system and extended to a large number of qubits. Comparing the predictions to the experimental results obtained by using an adiabatic quantum computer would help quantify the importance of multi-site correlations, and the influence of decoherence, on its operation.
