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 …

Witnessing quantum coherence: from solid-state to biological systems

CM Li, N Lambert, YN Chen, GY Chen, F Nori - Scientific reports, 2012 - nature.com
Quantum coherence is one of the primary non-classical features of quantum systems. While
protocols such as the Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) and quantum tomography can be used …

Isotope engineering of silicon and diamond for quantum computing and sensing applications

KM Itoh, H Watanabe - MRS communications, 2014 - cambridge.org
Some of the stable isotopes of silicon and carbon have zero nuclear spin, whereas many of
the other elements that constitute semiconductors consist entirely of stable isotopes that …

Condition for macroscopic realism beyond the Leggett-Garg inequalities

J Kofler, Č Brukner - Physical Review A—Atomic, Molecular, and Optical …, 2013 - APS
In 1985, Leggett and Garg put forward the concept of macroscopic realism (macrorealism)
and, in analogy to Bell's theorem, derived a necessary condition in terms of inequalities …

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 …

Partial-measurement backaction and nonclassical weak values in a superconducting circuit

JP Groen, D Ristè, L Tornberg, J Cramer, PC De Groot… - Physical review …, 2013 - APS
We realize indirect partial measurement of a transmon qubit in circuit quantum
electrodynamics by interaction with an ancilla qubit and projective ancilla measurement with …

Quantum correlations which imply causation

JF Fitzsimons, JA Jones, V Vedral - Scientific reports, 2015 - nature.com
In ordinary, non-relativistic, quantum physics, time enters only as a parameter and not as an
observable: a state of a physical system is specified at a given time and then evolved …

[BUCH][B] Beyond weird: Why everything you thought you knew about quantum physics is different

P Ball - 2018 - degruyter.com
Since Niels Bohr said this many years ago, quantum mechanics has only been getting more
shocking. We now realize that it's not really telling us that “weird” things happen out of sight …
