In contrast to a "single particle table-top trap", an essential feature of a storage ring "trap" is that $10^{10}$ or more particles can have their spins aligned in a polarized beam. This is a nunber of polarized particles large enough for…
The main source of decoherence for an electron spin confined to a quantum dot is the hyperfine interaction with nuclear spins. To analyze this process theoretically we diagonalize the central spin Hamiltonian in the high magnetic B-field…
