Mass-Independent Scheme to Test the Quantumness of a Massive Object

D Das, D Home, H Ulbricht, S Bose - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
The search for empirical schemes to evidence the nonclassicality of large masses is a
central quest of current research. However, practical schemes to witness the irreducible …

Experimental test of non-macrorealistic cat states in the cloud

HY Ku, N Lambert, FJ Chan, C Emary, YN Chen… - npj Quantum …, 2020 - nature.com
Abstract The Leggett–Garg inequality attempts to classify experimental outcomes as arising
from one of two possible classes of physical theories: those described by macrorealism …

Quantifying the nonclassicality of pure dephasing

HB Chen, PY Lo, C Gneiting, J Bae, YN Chen… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
One of the central problems in quantum theory is to characterize, detect, and quantify
quantumness in terms of classical strategies. Dephasing processes, caused by non …

Leggett-Garg macrorealism and the quantum nondisturbance conditions

R Uola, G Vitagliano, C Budroni - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
We investigate the relation between a refined version of Leggett and Garg conditions for
macrorealism, namely, the no-signaling-in-time (NSIT) conditions, and the quantum …

Validating and controlling quantum enhancement against noise by the motion of a qubit

F Nosrati, A Mortezapour, R Lo Franco - Physical Review A, 2020 - APS
Experimental validation and control of quantum traits for an open quantum system are
important for any quantum information purpose. We consider a traveling atom qubit as a …

Witnessing non-objectivity in the framework of strong quantum Darwinism

TP Le, A Olaya-Castro - Quantum Science and Technology, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
Quantum Darwinism is a compelling theory that describes the quantum-to classical transition
as the emergence of objectivity of quantum systems. Spectrum broadcast structure and …

Temporal witnesses of non-classicality in a macroscopic biological system

G Di Pietra, V Vedral, C Marletto - Scientific Reports, 2024 - nature.com
Exciton transfer along a bio-polymer is essential for many biological processes, for instance,
light harvesting in photosynthetic biosystems. Here we apply a new witness of non …

Precession-induced nonclassicality of the free induction decay of NV centers by a dynamical polarized nuclear spin bath

MC Lin, PY Lo, F Nori, HB Chen - Journal of Physics: Condensed …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
The ongoing exploration of the ambiguous boundary between the quantum and the classical
worlds has spurred substantial developments in quantum science and technology. Recently …

Leggett-Garg tests of macrorealism: Checks for noninvasiveness and generalizations to higher-order correlators

JJ Halliwell - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
In the tests for macrorealism proposed by Leggett and Garg, the temporal correlation
functions of a dichotomic variable Q must be measured in a noninvasive way to rule out …

Nonclassicality induced by nonstationary squeezed reservoirs

M Abdi, M Zarei - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We study nonclassical effects in the dynamics of an open quantum system. The model
involves a harmonic oscillator coupled to a reservoir of noninteracting harmonic oscillators …
