When entanglement harvesting is not really harvesting

E Tjoa, E Martín-Martínez - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We revisit the entanglement harvesting protocol when two detectors are in causal contact.
We study the role of field-mediated communication in generating entanglement between the …

Quantum signatures of black hole mass superpositions

J Foo, CS Arabaci, M Zych, RB Mann - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
We present a new operational framework for studying “superpositions of spacetimes,” which
are of fundamental interest in the development of a theory of quantum gravity. Our approach …

Fully relativistic entanglement harvesting

TR Perche, J Polo-Gómez, BSL Torres… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We study the protocol of entanglement harvesting when the particle detectors that harvest
entanglement from the field are replaced by fully relativistic quantum field theories. We show …

Quantum superpositions of Minkowski spacetime

J Foo, CS Arabaci, M Zych, RB Mann - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
Within any anticipated unifying theory of quantum gravity, it should be meaningful to
combine the fundamental notions of quantum superposition and spacetime to obtain so …

Harvesting entanglement from the gravitational vacuum

TR Perche, B Ragula, E Martín-Martínez - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We study how quantum systems can harvest entanglement from the quantum degrees of
freedom of the gravitational field. Concretely, we describe in detail the interaction of …

Entanglement harvesting between two inertial Unruh-DeWitt detectors from nonvacuum quantum fluctuations

D Barman, S Barman, BR Majhi - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
It is a well-known fact that, in recent times, entanglement harvesting from the quantum field is
being rigorously investigated further in flat and different curved backgrounds. The usually …

Unruh-DeWitt detector in dimensionally-reduced static spherically symmetric spacetimes

E Tjoa, RB Mann - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
A bstract We study the dynamics of an Unruh-DeWitt detector interacting with a massless
scalar field in an arbitrary static spherically symmetric spacetimes whose metric is …

Role of quantum degrees of freedom of relativistic fields in quantum information protocols

TR Perche, E Martín-Martínez - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We analyze the differences between relativistic fields with or without quantum degrees of
freedom in relativistic quantum information protocols. We classify the regimes where the …

Particle detectors from localized quantum field theories

TR Perche, J Polo-Gómez, BSL Torres… - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We present a fully relativistic model for localized probes in quantum field theory.
Furthermore, we show that it is possible to obtain particle detector models from localized …

Interference of communication and field correlations in entanglement harvesting

MH Zambianco, A Teixidó-Bonfill, E Martín-Martínez - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
We reveal that the information exchange between particle detectors and their ability to
harvest correlations from a quantum field can interfere constructively and destructively. This …
