SUMMARY

This discussion centers on decoherence experiments, specifically referencing a paper by Schlosshauer that details experiments involving ion traps. The study demonstrates a quadratic decrease in coherence relative to the number of ions in a Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state. Bill highlights the significance of system size in decoherence, providing a direct link to the research for further exploration.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of quantum mechanics principles
  • Familiarity with decoherence theory
  • Knowledge of entangled states, particularly GHZ states
  • Experience with experimental physics methodologies
NEXT STEPS
  • Read the paper "Decoherence Experiments" by Schlosshauer
  • Explore ion trap technology and its applications in quantum computing
  • Investigate the mathematical modeling of decoherence in quantum systems
  • Study the implications of decoherence on quantum information theory
USEFUL FOR

Quantum physicists, researchers in quantum computing, and students studying quantum mechanics who are interested in the experimental aspects of decoherence.

Any help would be greatly appreciated I tried using the search bar but nothing came up.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Here is a paper from an experiment with ion traps where they test decoherence as a function of system size, and verify a quadratic decrease of coherence as a function of number of ions involved in a particular entangled GHZ state.
