We study the quantum tunnelling of a very complex object of which only part is coupled to an external potential ( the potential barrier ). We treat this problem as the tunnelling of a particle (part of the system affected by the potential)…

Quantum theory implies, and empirical evidence confirms, that while particles $\textit{can}$ exhibit wave-like behavior in interferometric experiments, this behavior is so limited as $\textit{not}$ to allow for third- and higher-order…

In this paper we show how to measure in the setting of digital quantum simulations the reflection and transmission amplitudes of the one-dimensional scattering of a particle with a short-ranged potential. The main feature of the protocol is…
Coherent backscattering is a multiple scattering interference effect which enhances the diffuse reflection off a disordered sample in the backward direction. Classically, the enhanced intensity is twice the average background under well…
The last decades have seen a burst of experimental platforms reaching the so-called strong-coupling regime, where quantum coherent effects dominate over incoherent processes such as dissipation and thermalization. This has allowed us to…
The Hubbard model is a paradigmatic model of strongly correlated quantum matter, thus making it desirable to investigate with quantum simulators such as ultracold atomic gases. Here, we consider the problem of two atoms interacting in a…
