Second-quantized Unruh-DeWitt detectors and their quantum reference frame transformations
نویسندگان
چکیده
We generalize the Unruh-DeWitt detector model to second quantization. illustrate this by applying it an excited particle in a superposition of relativistic velocities. calculate, first order, how its decay depends on whether velocities is coherent or incoherent. Further, we framework quantum reference frames allow transformations rest second-quantized Unruh DeWitt detectors. As application, show transform into frame decaying that, laboratory frame, linear relativistically differing

Information propagation and entanglement generation between two Unruh-DeWitt detectors
The setup in which two quantum systems, Alice and Bob, communicate using bosonic field quanta can be viewed as a prototype for wireless quantum communication. In this thesis we focus on the most basic case, where Alice and Bob are modeled as Unruh-DeWitt detectors, i.e., as two-level quantum systems that interact locally through a scalar quantum field. Our aim is to study how information propag...
متن کاملQuantum Reference Frames and Quantum Transformations
A quantum frame is defined by a material object subject to the laws of quantum mechanics. The present paper studies the relations between quantum frames, which in the classical case are described by elements of the Poincaré group. The possibility of using a suitable quantum group is examined, but some arguments are given which show that a different mathematical structure is necessary. Some simp...
متن کاملCombinatorial algebra for second-quantized Quantum Theory
We describe an algebra G of diagrams that faithfully gives a diagrammatic representation of the structures of both the Heisenberg–Weyl algebra H – the associative algebra of the creation and annihilation operators of quantum mechanics – and U(LH), the enveloping algebra of the Heisenberg Lie algebra LH. We show explicitly how G may be endowed with the structure of a Hopf algebra, which is also ...
متن کاملDynamics of a Quantum Reference Frame
We analyze a quantum mechanical gyroscope, which is modeled as a large spin and used as a reference against which to measure the angular momenta of spin-1/2 particles. These measurements induce a back-action on the reference which is the central focus of our study. We begin by deriving explicit expressions for the quantum channel representing the back-action. Then, we analyze the dynamics incur...
