Realistic fault-tolerant quantum computing at reasonable overhead requires two-qubit gates with the highest possible fidelity. Typically, an infidelity of is recommended in the literature. Focusing on the phase-sensitive architecture used in laboratori…
Measuring natural circular dichroism in the x-ray regime to extract stereochemical information from chiral molecules in solution remains a challenge. This is primarily due to technical limitations of the existing synchrotron sources, which hinder acces…
We examine the spectrum and quantum states of small lattices with cylindrical and toroidal topology subject to a scalar gauge potential that introduces a position dependent phase in the inter-site coupling. Equivalency of gauges assumed in infinite lat…
Newly calculated multichannel quantum defect theory parameters and channel fractions are presented for the singlet and triplet S, P and D series and singlet F series of strontium. These results correct those reported in Vaillant et al (2014 J. Phys. B:…
We study the process of laser-assisted radiative recombination of an electron with a proton in a cold hydrogen plasma employing the semiclassical Kramers’ approach which involves calculation of classical trajectories in combined laser and Coulomb field…
We describe a novel technique to determine absolute nuclear radii of high-Z nuclides. Utilizing accurate theoretical atomic structure calculations together with precise measurements of extreme ultraviolet transitions in highly charged ions this method …
In this perspective article we propose and discuss a possible technique of in-depth material processing based on undersurface focusing of intense x-ray pulses. Currently, x-ray free-electron lasers can produce such intense x-ray pulses with femtosecond…
The investigation of atom number fluctuations in quantum gases at finite temperatures showcases the ongoing challenges in understanding complex quantum systems. Recently, the microcanonical nature of atom number fluctuations in weakly interacting Bose–…
As the simplest nitroaromatic compound, nitrobenzene is an interesting model system to explore the rich photochemistry of nitroaromatic compounds. Previous investigations of nitrobenzene’s photochemical dynamics have probed structural and electronic pr…
The dynamics of an atom of three levels in Λ configuration interacting with a quantized field of two modes in a cavity is studied within the rotating wave approximation by considering experimental values of accessible hyperfine levels of alkali atoms. …
