Multi-time correlators in continuous measurement of qubit observables

Quantum Physics 2018-02-14 v2 Superconductivity

Abstract

We consider multi-time correlators for output signals from linear detectors, continuously measuring several qubit observables at the same time. Using the quantum Bayesian formalism, we show that for unital (symmetric) evolution in the absence of phase backaction, an NN-time correlator can be expressed as a product of two-time correlators when NN is even. For odd NN, there is a similar factorization, which also includes a single-time average. Theoretical predictions agree well with experimental results for two detectors, which simultaneously measure non-commuting qubit observables.
