Gravity in the quantum lab (2017)
Journal Article
Howl, R., Hackermüller, L., Bruschi, D. E., & Fuentes, I. (2018). Gravity in the quantum lab. Advances in Physics, 3(1), Article 1383184. https://doi.org/10.1080/23746149.2017.1383184

At the beginning of the previous century, Newtonian mechanics was advanced by two new revolutionary theories, Quantum Mechanics (QM) and General Relativity (GR). Both theories have transformed our view of physical phenomena, with QM accurately predic... Read More about Gravity in the quantum lab.

Quantum decoherence of phonons in Bose–Einstein condensates (2017)
Journal Article
Howl, R., Sabín, C., Hackermüller, L., & Fuentes, I. (2017). Quantum decoherence of phonons in Bose–Einstein condensates. Journal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, 51(1), https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6455/aa9622

We apply modern techniques from quantum optics and quantum information science to Bose–Einstein condensates(BECs)in order to study, for the first time, the quantum decoherence of phonons of isolated BECs. In the last few years, major advances in the... Read More about Quantum decoherence of phonons in Bose–Einstein condensates.

Impurities as a quantum thermometer for a Bose-Einstein condensate (2014)
Journal Article
Sabín, C., White, A., Hackermuller, L., & Fuentes, I. (2014). Impurities as a quantum thermometer for a Bose-Einstein condensate. Scientific Reports, 4, 1-6. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep06436

We introduce a primary thermometer which measures the temperature of a Bose-Einstein Condensate in the sub-nK regime. We show, using quantum Fisher information, that the precision of our technique improves the state-of-the-art in thermometry in the s...
