Entanglement Witnesses from Single-Particle Interference
We describe a general method of realizing entanglement witnesses in terms of the interference pattern of a single quantum probe. After outlining the principle, we discuss specific realizations both with electrons in mesoscopic Aharonov-Bohm rings and with photons in standard Young’s double-slit or coherent-backscattering interferometers. How much information can be gained about separate parts o...
متن کاملUltrarelativistic particle collisions.
We present results from numerical solution of the Einstein field equations describing the head-on collision of two solitons boosted to ultrarelativistic energies. We show, for the first time, that at sufficiently high energies the collision leads to black hole formation, consistent with hoop-conjecture arguments. This implies that the nonlinear gravitational interaction between the kinetic ener...
متن کاملTwo-particle interferometry for non-central heavy-ion collisions
In non-central heavy ion collisions, identical two particle Hanbury-Brown/Twiss (HBT) correlations C(K,q) depend on the azimuthal direction of the pair momentum K. We investigate the consequences for a harmonic analysis of the corresponding HBT radius parameters R ij . Our discussion includes both, a model-independent analysis of these parameters in the Gaussian approximation, and the study of ...
متن کاملCentrality Dependence of Two-Particle Correlations in Heavy Ion Collisions
Data from the PHOBOS detector have been used to study two-particle correlations over a broad range of pseudorapidity. A simple cluster model parameterization has been applied to inclusive two-particle correlations over a range of centrality for both Cu+Cu and Au+Au collisions at √ sNN = 200 GeV. Analysis of the data for Au+Au has recently been extended to more peripheral collisions showing that...
متن کاملTesting Wave-Particle Duality with Single-Photon Interference Measurements
We have observed wave and particle characteristics of light in two distinct experiments. In the first case, a strongly attenuated HeNe laser was passed through a Mach-Zender interferometer. The two legs of the interferometer were given definite, mutually perpendicular polarization to provide which-way information. The resulting interference pattern was captured using a wicked expensive Electron...
