Randomly repeated measurements during the evolution of a closed quantum system create a sequence of probabilities for the first detection of a certain quantum state. The related discrete monitored evolution for the return of the quantum…

We consider the quantum dynamical evolution of a fully-connected quantum system subjected to random projective measurements and study the first detection time of an extended subspace of the Hilbert space. Exact analytical expressions are…

We consider the quantum first detection problem for a particle evolving on a graph under repeated projective measurements with fixed rate $1/\tau$. A general formula for the mean first detected transition time is obtained for a quantum walk…

We provide a general framework to compute the probability distribution $F_r(t)$ of the first detection time of a 'state of interest' in a generic quantum system subjected to random projective measurements. In our 'quantum resetting'…

The first detection of a quantum particle on a graph has been shown to depend sensitively on the sampling time {\tau} . Here we use the recently introduced quantum renewal equation to investigate the statistics of first detection on an…

A quantum walker on a graph, prepared in the state $| \psi_{\rm in} \rangle$, e.g. initially localized at node $r_{\rm in}$, is repeatedly probed, with fixed frequency $1/\tau$, to test its presence at some target node $r_{\rm d}$ until the…

We investigate in depth the relation between the first detection time of an isolated quantum system that is repeatedly perturbed by strong local measurements with a large fixed frequency $1/\tau$, determining whether it is in some given…

The quantum first-detection problem concerns the statistics of the time at which a system, subject to repeated measurements, is observed in a prescribed target state for the first time. Unlike its classical counterpart, the measurement back…

There are two distinct perspectives on the quantum time-of-arrival: one can ask for the probability that a particle is found at the detector at a given time, regardless of whether it was previously detected, or for the probability that the…

In this paper, we analyze the statistics of detection data in a general double-double-slit experiment. The two particles are detected at random times which are not equal in general and because we do not have any constraint on the distances…

We study the transport of many partially distinguishable and possibly interacting particles under the action of repeated projective measurements on a target space and investigate how the particles' interference affects the mean first…

We study the first hitting time statistics between a one-dimensional run-and-tumble particle and a target site that switches intermittently between visible and invisible phases. The two-state dynamics of the target is independent of the…

We investigate a generic discrete quantum system prepared in state $|\psi_\text{in}\rangle$, under repeated detection attempts aimed to find the particle in state $|d\rangle$, for example a quantum walker on a finite graph searching for a…

Even after decades of research the problem of first passage time statistics for quantum dynamics remains a challenging topic of fundamental and practical importance. Using a projective measurement approach, with a sampling time $\tau$, we…

We develop a general framework for the construction of probabilities for the time of arrival in quantum systems. The time of arrival is identified with the time instant when a transition in the detector's degrees of freedom takes place.…
