The dynamics of a two-level spin system dressed by bichromatic radiation is studied under the conditions of double resonance when the frequency of one (microwave) field is equal to the Larmor frequency of the spin system and the frequency…
Precision astrometry is an integral component of successful pulsar timing campaigns. Astrometric parameters are commonly derived by fitting them as parameters of a timing model to a series of pulse times of arrival (TOAs). TOAs measured to…
Optical multilayer coatings of high-reflective mirrors significantly determine the properties of Fabry-Perot resonators. Thermal (Brownian) noise in these coatings produce excess phase noise which can seriously degrade the sensitivity of…
Increasing coherent interrogation times is central to advancing the precision of optical clocks. Synchronous differential optical clock comparisons have now demonstrated atomic coherence times that far exceed the coherence time of the clock…
We present a synchronization-free differential observable for one-way inter-satellite laser ranging, designed to suppress first-order Doppler effects without requiring clock synchronization between spacecraft. The observable is constructed…
Recent realisation of three-dimensional optical lattice clocks circumvents short range collisional clock shifts which have been the bottle neck towards higher precision; the long range electronic dipole-dipole interaction between the atoms…
A secrecy system with side information at the decoders is studied in the context of lossy source compression over a noiseless broadcast channel. The decoders have access to different side information sequences that are correlated with the…
The Total Internal Reflection Ultrasonic Sensor (TIRUS) is a device especially aimed at detecting subsurface flaws in a tested specimen based on the frustrated total internal reflection of bulk ultrasonic waves in the sensor body [1]. In…
Precise quantum control relies on a deep understanding of the dynamics of quantum systems under external drives. This study investigates the impact of anharmonicity on qubit dynamics under conditions typical for two-qubit entangling gates…
We study the coherent effect of the Casimir-Polder interaction on the oscillations of two-photon driven atoms. We find that, for oscillations between two degenerate states in lambda-configuration, shifts on the Rabi frequency may be induced…
As a consequence of a general trend in the physics of oscillators and clocks towards optics, phase and frequency metrology is rapidly moving to optics too. Yet, optics is not replacing the traditional radio-frequency (RF) and microwave…
A key issue in developing pendular Fabry-Perot interferometers as very accurate displacement measurement devices, is the noise level. The Fabry-Perot pendulums are the most promising device to detect gravitational waves, and therefore the…
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance experiments show that the decay of Rabi oscillations of ensembles of spin qubits depends noticeably on the microwave power and more precisely on the Rabi frequency, an effect recently called "driven…
Ferroaxial order is characterized by the breaking of mirror symmetry parallel to the crystallographic principal axis, which often originates from spontaneous rotational distortions of the crystal lattice. Such rotational distortions are, by…
The frequency flicker of an oscillator, which appears as a 1/f^3 line in the phase noise spectral density, and as a floor on the Allan variance plot, originates from two basic phenomena, namely: (1) the 1/f phase noise turned into 1/f…
We perform spin noise spectroscopy experiments in metastable helium atoms at room temperature, with a probe light whose frequency is blue detuned from the D0 line. Both circular birefringence fluctuations (Faraday noise) and linear…
We report on first direct observation of spontaneous fluctuations of birefringence in glasses doped with rare-earth (RE) ions. The fluctuations were observed in Nd$^{3+}$- and Yb$^{3+}$-doped glasses as polarization noise of the laser beam…
Variations in the instrumental noise of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) over time are expected as a result of e.g. scheduled satellite operations or unscheduled glitches. We demonstrate that these fluctuations can be leveraged…
The cancellation of high-frequency laser phase noise using feedforward techniques, as opposed to feedback methods, has achieved significant advancements in recent years. However, directly applying existing feedforward techniques to laser…
Frequency instability of superconducting resonators and qubits leads to dephasing and time-varying energy-loss and hinders quantum-processor tune-up. Its main source is dielectric noise originating in surface oxides. Thorough noise studies…
