Quantum Journal Club: Insensitivity of the rate of ion motional heating to trap
Abstract: We presentmeasurements of trapped-ion motional-state heating rates in niobium and gold surface-electrode ion traps over a range of trap-electrode temperatures from approximately 4 K to room...

Quantum Journal Club: Pattern Formation with Trapped Ions
Abstract: Ion traps are a versatile tool to study nonequilibrium statistical physics, due to the tunability of dissipation and nonlinearity.We propose an experiment with a chain of ions, where dissip...

QUIC talk: Measurement sharpness cuts nonlocality and contextuality in every phy
Abstract: Gathering data through measurements is at the basis of every experimental science. Ideally, measurements should be repeatable and, when extracting only coarse-grained data, they should allo...

Quantum Nonlinear Optics Using Quantum Memory
Abstract: Large nonlinearity at the single-photon level can pave the way for the implementation of universal quantum gates. However, realizing large and noiseless nonlinearity at such low light level...

Quantum Journal Club: Experimental Violation of Multipartite Bell Inequalities w
Abstract: We report on the experimental violation of multipartite Bell inequalities by entangled states of trapped ions. First, we consider resource states for measurement-based quantum computation o...

Quantum Journal Club: Control of the conformations of ion Coulomb crystals in a
Abstract: Laser-cooled atomic ions form ordered structures in radiofrequency ion traps and in Penning traps. Here we demonstrate in a Penning trap the creation and manipulation of a wide variety of i...
