Robust Rydberg gate via Landau-Zener control of Förster resonance (2018)
Journal Article
Huang, X.-R., Ding, Z.-X., Hu, C.-S., Shen, L.-T., Li, W., Wu, H., & Zheng, S.-B. (2018). Robust Rydberg gate via Landau-Zener control of Förster resonance. Physical Review A, 98(5), Article 052324. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.98.052324

In this paper, we propose a scheme to implement the two-qubit controlled-Z gate via the Stark-tuned Förster interaction of Rydberg atoms, where the Förster defect is driven by a time-dependent electric field of a simple sinusoidal function while the...

A direct test of density wave theory in a grand-design spiral galaxy (2018)
Journal Article
Peterken, T. G., Merrifield, M. R., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Drory, N., Krawczyk, C. M., Masters, K. L., …Westfall, K. B. (2019). A direct test of density wave theory in a grand-design spiral galaxy. Nature Astronomy, 3(2), 178-182. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41550-018-0627-5

The exact nature of the arms of spiral galaxies is still an open question1. It has been widely assumed that spiral arms in galaxies with two distinct symmetrical arms are the products of density waves that propagate around the disk, with the spiral a...

SDSS-IV MaNGA: pattern speeds of barred galaxies (2018)
Journal Article
Guo, R., Mao, S., Athanassoula, E., Li, H., Ge, J., Long, R., …Masters, K. (2019). SDSS-IV MaNGA: pattern speeds of barred galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 482(2), 1733-1756. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty2715

The MaNGA project has obtained IFU data for several thousand nearby galaxies, including barred galaxies. With the two dimensional spectral and kinematic information provided by IFUs, we can measure the pattern speed of a barred galaxy, which determin...

Enhancing correlation times for edge spins through dissipation (2018)
Journal Article
Vasiloiu, L. M., Carollo, F., & Garrahan, J. P. (2018). Enhancing correlation times for edge spins through dissipation. Physical Review B, 98(9), 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevb.98.094308

Spin chains with open boundaries, such as the transverse field Ising model, can display coherence times for edge spins that diverge with the system size as a consequence of almost conserved operators, the so-called strong zero modes. Here we discuss... Read More about Enhancing correlation times for edge spins through dissipation.
