Quantum sensors and qubits are usually two-level systems (TLS), the quantum analogs of classical bits which assume binary values '0' or '1'. They are useful to the extent to which they can persist in quantum superpositions of '0' and '1' in…

Condensed matter physics at room temperature usually assumes that electrons in conductors can be described as spatially narrow wave packets - in contrast to what the Schr\"odinger equation would predict. How a finite-temperature environment…

In quantum mechanics an incoming particle wave packet with sufficient energy will undergo both transmission and reflection when encountering a barrier of lower energy, but in classical mechanics there is no reflection, only transmission. In…
We use a quasi Hamiltonian formalism to describe the dissipative dynamics of a circuit QED qubit that is affected by several fluctuating two level systems with a 1/f noise power spectrum. The qubit-resonator interactions are described by…
We propose and study a model of dephasing due to an environment of bistable fluctuators. We apply our analysis to decoherence of Josephson Qubits, induced by background charges present in the substrate, which are also responsible for the…
We summarize our results on decoherence for short- to intermediate-time dynamics of an externally controlled two-state quantum system - a qubit - interacting with thermal bosonic environment. The developed approximation schemes are…
Quantum coherences characterise the ability of particles to quantum mechanically interfere within some given distances. In the context of noisy many-body quantum systems these coherences can fluctuate. A simple toy model to study such…
Motivated by fundamental questions about the loss of phase coherence at low temperature we consider relaxation, dephasing and renormalization effects in quantum two-level systems which are coupled to a dissipative environment. We observe…
We show that the dynamics of a driven quantum system weakly coupled to the environment can exhibit two distinct regimes. While the relaxation basis is usually determined by the system+drive Hamiltonian (system-governed dynamics), we find…
We analyze rigorously the dynamics of the entanglement between two qubits which interact only through collective and local environments. Our approach is based on the resonance perturbation theory which assumes a small interaction between…
We consider decoherence of quantum registers, which consist of the qubits sited approximately periodically in space. The sites of the qubits are permitted to have a small random variance. We derive the explicit conditions under which the…
We discuss fluctuations in the measurement process and how these fluctuations are related to the dissipational parameter characterising quantum damping or decoherence. On the example of the measuring current of the variable-barrier or QPC…
