The usual, "static" version of the quantum Zeno effect consists in the hindrance of the evolution of a quantum systems due to repeated measurements. There is however a "dynamic" version of the same phenomenon, first discussed by von Neumann…

Semiconductor hole-spin qubits offer a promising route to quantum computation due to their weak hyperfine interaction, and strong intrinsic spin-orbit coupling enabling electric control of qubits. Scalable architectures, however, require…
