Spectroscopy, fundamental symmetry tests and quantum simulation with trapped ions

Spectroscopy, fundamental symmetry tests and quantum simulation with trapped ions by Thaned Pruttivarasin Doctor of Philosophy in Physics University of California, Berkeley Professor Hartmut Häffner, Chair This dissertation reports on precision measurements of the atomic structure of calcium ions (Ca), application of trapped Ca ions as a probe for a violation of fundamental symmetry and prospec...

Experimental quantum simulations of many-body physics with trapped ions.

Direct experimental access to some of the most intriguing quantum phenomena is not granted due to the lack of precise control of the relevant parameters in their naturally intricate environment. Their simulation on conventional computers is impossible, since quantum behaviour arising with superposition states or entanglement is not efficiently translatable into the classical language. However, ...

VIEWPOINT Trapped Ions Test Fundamental

I t is surprising that science cannot explain how matter was created after the big bang. All known physical processes leave the Universe with essentially equal amounts of matter and antimatter, so why is everything made of matter? This baryon asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) is one of the biggest mysteries facing modern physics and a driving force behind a wide range of efforts probing the front...
