Quantum nondemolition measurements and non–Newtonian gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
In the present work the detection, by means of a nondemolition measurement, of a Yukawa term, coexisting simultaneously with gravity, has been considered. In other words, a nondemolition variable for the case of a particle immersed in a gravitational field containing a Yukawa term is obtained. Afterwards the continuous monitoring of this nondemolition parameter is analyzed, the corresponding propagator is evaluated, and the probabilities associated with the possible measurement outputs are found. The relevance of these kind of proposals in connection with some unified theories of elementary particles has also been underlined.

Quantum nondemolition measurement of a light field component by a feedback compensated beam splitter
In conventional quantum nondemolition measurements, the interaction between signal and probe preserves the measured variable. Alternatively, it is possible to restore the original value of the variable by feedback. In this paper, we describe a quantum nondemolition measurement of a quadrature component of the light field using a feedback compensated beam splitter. The noise induced by the vacuu...
متن کاملEngineering QND measurements for continuous variable quantum information processing
A novel scheme to realize the whole class of quantum nondemolition (QND) measurements of a field quadrature is suggested. The setup requires linear optical components and squeezers, and allows optimal QND measurements of quadratures, which minimize the information gain versus state disturbance trade-off.
متن کاملFrom Modified Newtonian Gravity to Dark Energy via Quantum Entanglement
Starting from the classical Newton inverse square law of gravitation we arrive at a modified Newtonian gravity in the spirit of the work of Milgrom-Bekenstein pioneering work. This is achieved by injecting the needed quantum mechanical dissection of special relativity into Newton’s law via the modified energy mass relationship which transforms Einstein’s famous formula 2 E mc = from a smooth fo...
متن کاملImpulsive quantum measurements: restricted path integral versus von Neumann collapse
The relation between the restricted path integral approach to quantum measurement theory and the commonly accepted von Neumann wavefunction collapse postulate is presented. It is argued that in the limit of impulsive measurements the two approaches lead to the same predictions. The example of repeated impulsive quantum measurements of position performed on a harmonic oscillator is discussed in ...
متن کاملQuantum nondemolition measurements on two-level atomic systems and temporal Bell inequalities
The evolution of a two-level system subjected to stimulated transitions which is undergoing a sequence of measurements of the level occupation probability is evaluated. Its time correlation function is compared to the one obtained through the pure Schrödinger evolution. Systems of this kind have been recently proposed for testing the quantum mechanical predictions against those of macrorealisti...
