We reply to a comment by Averin and Korotkov http://uk.arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0404549 on Stace and Barrett, PRL 92, 136802 (2004) http://link.aps.org/abstract/PRL/v92/e136802, showing that their specific criticisms are unfounded, and…
We consider the problem of continuous quantum measurement of coherent oscillations between two quantum states of an individual two-state system. It is shown that the interplay between the information acquisition and the backaction dephasing…
The problem of continuous quantum measurement of coherent oscillations in an individual quantum two-state system is studied for a generic model of the measuring device. It is shown that for a symmetric detector, the signal-to-noise ratio of…
Recently K. Banaszek, I. A. Walmsley, K. Wodkiewicz (quant-ph/0012097) commented on our Proposal for the Measurement of Bell-Type Correlations from Continuous Variables [T. C. Ralph, W. J. Munro, R. E. S. Polkinghorne, Phys. Rev. Lett. 85,…
We develop a theory of coherent quantum oscillations in two, in general interacting, qubits measured continuously by a mesoscopic detector with arbitrary non-linearity and discuss an example of SQUID magnetometer that can operate as such a…
In quant-ph/9812017v2 M.B. Mensky reviewed our application of the restricted path integral approach to quantum measurements of energy. In this comment we point out that Mensky's assessment of our results is incorrect.
This paper presents a new Symmetrical Theory (ST) of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics which postulates: quantum mechanics is a theory about complete experiments, not particles; a complete experiment is maximally described by a complex…
The impossibility of measuring noncommuting quantum mechanical observables is one of the most fascinating consequences of the quantum mechanical postulates. Hence, to date the investigation of quantum measurement and projection is a…
The measurability by means of continuous measurements, of an observable $\A(t_0)$, at an instant, and of a time averaged observable, $\bar \A=1/T\int \A(t')dt'$, is examined for linear and in particular for non-linear quantum mechanical…
It is argued that recent claims by A. Hobson that standard quantum theory has no measurement problem cannot be sustained. Moreover, it is pointed out that taking the reduced density operator of a component system as an epistemic…
We calculate the noise spectrum of the output signal of a quantum detector during continuous measurement of a two-level system (qubit). We generalize the previous results obtained for the regime of high voltages (when $eV$ is much larger…
We argue that the claim given in quant-ph/9801014 is untenable. The fallacy in the proof is a misinterpretation of the no-cloning theorem, which does not allow quantum jumps, specifically measurements.
We study the dynamics of a charge qubit, consisting of a single electron in a double well potential coupled to a point-contact (PC) electrometer, using the quantum trajectories formalism. Contrary to previous predictions, we show formally…
We develop a theory of quadratic quantum measurements by a mesoscopic detector. It is shown that quadratic measurements should have non-trivial quantum information properties, providing, for instance, a simple way of entangling two…
I show that the claim of the paper [arXiv:1310.2185] on the absence of instability for a minimally coupled scalar field on a static spherically symmetric gravitational background is incorrect.
Ten years ago, coherent oscillations between two quantum states of a superconducting circuit differing by the presence or absence of a single Cooper pair on a metallic island were observed for the first time. This result immediately…
Synchronization in quantum systems has been recently studied through persistent oscillations of local observables, which stem from undamped modes of the dissipative dynamics. However, the existence of such modes requires fine-tuning the…
We investigate the continuous weak measurement of a solid-state qubit by single electron transistors in nonlinear response regime. It is found that the signal-to-noise ratio can violate the universal upper bound imposed quantum mechanically…
With the recent surge of interest in quantum computation, it has become very important to develop clear experimental tests for ``quantum behavior'' in a system. This issue has been addressed in the past in the form of the inequalities due…
A very recent article [(1) E. Zakka-Bajjani et al., PRL104, 206802 (2010)] has addressed the problem of how the statistics of electrons crossing a quantum conductor influences that of the photons they emit. It is however not clear that the…
