It is control that turns scientific knowledge into useful technology: in physics and engineering
it provides a systematic way for driving a dynamical system from a given initial state into a …

1. INTRODUCTION Photoassociation, forming molecules from ultracold atoms using laser
light, is a prime example of coherent control: The process is complex and poses many …

Quantum coherence is an essential ingredient in quantum information processing and plays
a central role in emergent fields such as nanoscale thermodynamics and quantum biology …

Quantifying coherence is a key task in both quantum-mechanical theory and practical
applications. Here, a reliable quantum coherence measure is presented by utilizing the …

Miniaturization has been the driving force in contemporary technologies. However, two main
obstacles limit further progress: additional reduction in size has reached its quantum limit …

We demonstrate coherent control of bond making, a milestone on the way to coherent
control of photoinduced bimolecular chemical reactions. In strong-field multiphoton …

Previous studies have shown that the decoherence of environments generally negatively
influences the quantum correlations in the Schwarzschild black hole. In our paper, we find …

Photoelectron circular dichroism refers to the forward/backward asymmetry in the
photoelectron angular distribution with respect to the propagation axis of circularly polarized …

Coherence is the most fundamental quantum feature of the nonclassical systems. The
understanding of coherence within the resource theory has been attracting increasing …

We study optimal quantum control of the dynamics of trapped Bose-Einstein condensates:
The targets are to split a condensate, residing initially in a single well, into a double well …
