Towards a Theory of Metastability in Open Quantum Dynamics (2016)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Guţă, M., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Towards a Theory of Metastability in Open Quantum Dynamics. Physical Review Letters, 116(24), Article 240404. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.240404

© 2016 American Physical Society. By generalizing concepts from classical stochastic dynamics, we establish the basis for a theory of metastability in Markovian open quantum systems. Partial relaxation into long-lived metastable states - distinct fro... Read More about Towards a Theory of Metastability in Open Quantum Dynamics.

Dynamical phase transitions as a resource for quantum enhanced metrology (2016)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Gu??, M., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Dynamical phase transitions as a resource for quantum enhanced metrology. Physical Review A, 93(2), Article 022103. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.93.022103

We consider the general problem of estimating an unknown control parameter of an open quantum system. We establish a direct relation between the evolution of both system and environment and the precision with which the parameter can be estimated. We...
