Authors: Diez-Valle, Pablo; Porras, Diego; Garcia-Ripoll, Juan Jose Journal: PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS Publication date: 2023/02/02 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.130.050601 Abstract: In this Letter, we provide analytical and numerical evidence that the single-layer quantum approximate optimization algorithm on universal Ising spin models produces thermal-like states. We find that these pseudo-Boltzmann states can not be efficiently simulated on classical [...]

On some unexplored decoherence aspects in the Caldeira-Leggett formalism: arrival time distributions, identical particles and diffraction in time

Authors: Mousavi, S., V; Miret-Artes, S. Journal: EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL PLUS Publication date: 2022/01/19 DOI: 10.1140/epjp/s13360-022-02367-6 Abstract: Some unexplored decoherence aspects within the Caldeira-Leggett master equation are analyzed and discussed. The decoherence process is controlled by the two environment parameters, the relaxation rate or friction and the temperature, leading to a gradual transition from the [...]

Authors: Hita-Perez, Maria; Jauma, Gabriel; Pino, Manuel; Garcia-Ripoll, Juan Jose Journal: PHYSICAL REVIEW APPLIED Publication date: 2022/01/24 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevApplied.17.014028 Abstract: A flux qubit can interact strongly when it is capacitively coupled to other circuit elements. This interaction can be separated into two parts, one acting on the qubit subspaces and one in which excited states [...]

Authors: Garcia-Abenza, A.; No, J. M. Journal: EUROPEAN PHYSICAL JOURNAL C Publication date: 2022/02/01 DOI: 10.1140/epjc/s10052-022-10089-3 Abstract: High-energy ( )gamma gamma colliders constitute a potential running mode of future lepton colliders such as the ILC and CLIC. We study the sensitivity of a high-energy gamma gamma collider to the Higgs portal scenario to a hidden [...]

Authors: Fernandez-Fernandez, D.; Gonzalez-Tudela, A. Journal: PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS Publication date: 2022/03/14 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.128.113601 Abstract: Subwavelength atomic arrays, recently labeled as quantum metamaterials, have emerged as an exciting platform for obtaining novel quantum optical phenomena. The strong interference effects in these systems generate subradiant excitations that propagate through the atomic array with very long lifetimes. [...]

Connecting steady-states of driven-dissipative photonic lattices with spontaneous collective emission phenomena
