The manuscript investigates the entropy squeezing of a qubit (two-level atom) interacting with the cavity field in the Schr\"odinger cat states. The effects of the Schr\"odinger cat states of the field on the squeezing are examined. Our…

Confinement of a chromodynamical string can result in specific effects in scattering processes and multiparticle production. In particular, due to its rotation secondary fragments of the splitting apart string can move like stones thrown…

In the first paper of this series, I introduced a non-linear, Hamiltonian, generalization of Schroedinger's theory that blocks formation of macroscopic dispersion ("cats"). But that theory was entirely deterministic, and so the origin of…

Quantum theory in its conventional formulation is notoriously subject to various measurement-related paradoxes, as exemplified by the "Schrodinger's Cat" and "Wigner's Friend" thought experiments. It has been shown, for example by…

We consider the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equation set on a two dimensional box of size $L$ with periodic boundary conditions. By taking the large box limit $L \to \infty$ in the weakly nonlinear regime (characterized by smallness…

The conditions of tests and calibrations described in the article E.E Kading et al. [Phys. Rev. Res. 2, 023279 (2020)] show striking flaws. The interpretation and extraction of quantitative results from this experiment are considered…

We draw analogies between protected superconducting qubits and bosonic qubits by studying the fluxonium Hamiltonian in its Fock basis. The mean-field phase diagram of fluxonium (at the sweet spot) is identified, with a region in parameter…

The flux quanta attachment to the electrons creates composite fermions (CFs). The mass, the size and the density of the CF are inconsistent with real material. The sequence of fractional charges which suggest formation of CF agrees with the…

Pohl et al. have reported a very precise measurement of the Lamb-shift in muonic Hydrogen, from which they infer the radius characterizing the proton's charge distribution. The result is 5 standard deviations away from the one of the CODATA…

High-dimensional quantum systems are a valuable resource for quantum information processing. They can be used to encode error-correctable logical qubits, which has been demonstrated using continuous-variable states in microwave cavities or…

The aim of this note is to extend recent results of Yajima-Zhang \cite{Y-Z1, Y-Z2} on the 1/2- smoothing effect for Schr\"odinger equation with potential growing at infinity faster than quadratically.

The dominant source of decoherence in contemporary frequency-tunable superconducting qubits is 1/$f$ flux noise. To understand its origin and find ways to minimize its impact, we systematically study flux noise amplitudes in more than 50…

We introduce the concept of the ``polarized'' distance, which distinguishes the orthogonal states with different energies. We also give new inequalities for the known Hilbert-Schmidt distance between neighbouring states and express this…

We present what is to our knowledge the first implementation of a Schr\"odinger cat states "breeding" operation, which allows an iterative growth of these states. We thus report the experimental generation of a squeezed Schr\"odinger cat…

We present a general phenomenological model for superconducting qubits subject to noise produced by two-state fluctuators whose couplings to the qubit are all roughly the same. In flux qubit experiments where the working point can be…
