Zeno phenomena : pulsed versus continuous measurement
The time evolution of an unstable quantum mechanical system coupled with an external measuring agent is investigated. According to the features of the interaction Hamiltonian, a quantum Zeno effect (hindered decay) or an inverse quantum Zeno effect (accelerated decay) can take place, depending on the response time of the apparatus. The transition between the two regimes is analyzed for both pul...
متن کاملQuantum Zeno and Zeno-like effects in nitrogen vacancy centers
We present a proposal to realize the quantum Zeno effect (QZE) and quantum Zeno-like effect (QZLE) in a proximal (13)C nuclear spin by controlling a proximal electron spin of a nitrogen vacancy (NV) center. The measurement is performed by applying a microwave pulse to induce the transition between different electronic spin states. Under the practical experimental conditions, our calculations sh...
متن کاملSTIRAP-like transitions in a harmonically-modulated optical lattice
We introduce a method for the coherent acceleration of atoms trapped in an optical lattice, using the well-known model for stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP). Specifically, we show that small harmonic modulations of the optical lattice amplitude, with frequencies tuned to the eigenvalue spacings of three “unperturbed” eigenstates, reveals a threestate STIRAP subsystem. We use this mode...
متن کاملUnstable Systems and Quantum Zeno Phenomena in Quantum Field Theory
We analyze the Zeno phenomenon in quantum field theory. The decay of an unstable system can be modified by changing the time interval between successive measurements (or by varying the coupling to an external system that plays the role of measuring apparatus). We speak of quantum Zeno effect if the decay is slowed and of inverse quantum Zeno (or Heraclitus) effect if it is accelerated. The anal...
متن کاملEntanglement purification through Zeno-like measurements
We present a novel method to purify quantum states, i.e. purification through Zeno-like measurements, and show an application to entanglement purification. PACS numbers: 03.65.Xp, 03.67.Mn
