Kochen-specker contextuality

C Budroni, A Cabello, O Gühne, M Kleinmann… - Reviews of Modern …, 2022 - APS
A central result in the foundations of quantum mechanics is the Kochen-Specker theorem. In
short, it states that quantum mechanics is in conflict with classical models in which the result …

Colloquium: Incompatible measurements in quantum information science

O Gühne, E Haapasalo, T Kraft, JP Pellonpää… - Reviews of Modern …, 2023 - APS
Some measurements in quantum mechanics disturb each other. This has puzzled physicists
since the formulation of the theory, but only in recent decades has the incompatibility of …

Leggett–garg inequalities

C Emary, N Lambert, F Nori - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
In contrast to the spatial Bell's inequalities which probe entanglement between spatially
separated systems, the Leggett–Garg inequalities test the correlations of a single system …

Macroscopic quantum states: Measures, fragility, and implementations

F Fröwis, P Sekatski, W Dür, N Gisin… - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2018 - APS
Large-scale quantum effects have always played an important role in the foundations of
quantum theory. With recent experimental progress and the aspiration for quantum …

A strict experimental test of macroscopic realism in a superconducting flux qubit

GC Knee, K Kakuyanagi, MC Yeh, Y Matsuzaki… - Nature …, 2016 - nature.com
Macroscopic realism is the name for a class of modifications to quantum theory that allow
macroscopic objects to be described in a measurement-independent manner, while largely …

Ideal negative measurements in quantum walks disprove theories based on classical trajectories

C Robens, W Alt, D Meschede, C Emary, A Alberti - Physical Review X, 2015 - APS
We report on a stringent test of the nonclassicality of the motion of a massive quantum
particle, which propagates on a discrete lattice. Measuring temporal correlations of the …

Violation of a Leggett–Garg inequality with ideal non-invasive measurements

GC Knee, S Simmons, EM Gauger, JJL Morton… - Nature …, 2012 - nature.com
The quantum superposition principle states that an entity can exist in two different states
simultaneously, counter to our'classical'intuition. Is it possible to understand a given system's …

A review and reformulation of macroscopic realism: resolving its deficiencies using the framework of generalized probabilistic theories

D Schmid - Quantum, 2024 - quantum-journal.org
The notion of macrorealism was introduced by Leggett and Garg in an attempt to capture our
intuitive conception of the macroscopic world, which seems difficult to reconcile with our …

No fine theorem for macrorealism: Limitations of the Leggett-Garg inequality

L Clemente, J Kofler - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
Tests of local realism and macrorealism have historically been discussed in very similar
terms: Leggett-Garg inequalities follow Bell inequalities as necessary conditions for classical …

Leggett-Garg macrorealism and temporal correlations

G Vitagliano, C Budroni - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
Leggett and Garg formulated macrorealist models encoding our intuition on classical
systems, ie, physical quantities have a definite value that can be measured with minimal …
