The traditional view from particle physics is that quantum-gravity effects should become
detectable only at extremely high energies and small length scales. Owing to the significant …

Graph states are a broad family of entangled quantum states, each defined by a graph
composed of edges representing the correlations between subsystems. Such states …

The ability to engineer cavity-mediated interactions has emerged as a powerful tool for the
generation of non-local correlations and the investigation of non-equilibrium phenomena in …

Mechanical systems prepared in quantum non-Gaussian states constitute a new advanced
class of phenomena breaking the laws of classical physics. Specifically, such mechanical …

Controlling the motional degrees of isolated, single nanoparticles trapped within optical
fields in a high vacuum are seen as ideal candidates for exploring the limits of quantum …

A levitated nanomechanical oscillator under ultrahigh vacuum is highly isolated from its
environment. It has been predicted that this isolation leads to very low mechanical …

Nanoparticles levitated in an optical trap provide a versatile platform to study mechanical
oscillators in a controlled environment with tuneable parameters. Recently, it has become …

We present an experimental proposal for the rapid preparation of the center of mass of a
levitated particle in a macroscopic quantum state, that is a state delocalized over a length …

By isolating from the environment and precisely controlling mesoscopic objects, levitation in
vacuum has evolved into a versatile technique that has already benefited diverse scientific …

An enduring challenge in constructing mechanical-oscillator-based hybrid quantum systems
is to ensure engineered coupling to an auxiliary degree of freedom and maintain good …
