The field of cavity optomechanics is reviewed. This field explores the interaction between
electromagnetic radiation and nanomechanical or micromechanical motion. This review …

This paper presents the results of a functional-integral approach to the dynamics of a two-
state system coupled to a dissipative environment. It is primarily an extended account of …

Tests of quantum mechanics on a macroscopic scale require extreme control over
mechanical motion and its decoherence,–. Quantum control of mechanical motion has been …

Superconducting circuits are macroscopic in size but have generic quantum properties such
as quantized energy levels, superposition of states, and entanglement, all of which are more …

Much of our understanding of human thinking is based on probabilistic models. This
innovative book by Jerome R. Busemeyer and Peter D. Bruza argues that, actually, the …

Superconducting circuits based on Josephson junctions exhibit macroscopic quantum
coherence and can behave like artificial atoms. Recent technological advances have made …

A" Schrödinger cat''-like state of matter was generated at the single atom level. A trapped
9Be+ ion was laser-cooled to the zero-point energy and then prepared in a superposition of …

We have observed coherent time evolution between two quantum states of a
superconducting flux qubit comprising three Josephson junctions in a loop. The …

Optomechanics is concerned with the use of light to control mechanical objects. As a field, it
has been hugely successful in the production of precise and novel sensors, the …
