Tuning the Tricritical Point with Spin-Orbit Coupling in Polarized Fermionic Condensates

Posted: February 22nd, 2012, 9:00am MST by Renyuan Liao, Yu Yi-Xiang, and Wu-Ming Liu

Author(s): Renyuan Liao, Yu Yi-Xiang, and Wu-Ming Liu
We investigate a two-component atomic Fermi gas with population imbalance in the presence of Rashba-type spin-orbit coupling (SOC). As a competition between SOC and population imbalance, the finite-temperature phase diagram reveals a large variety of new features, including the expanding of the supe...

Zeno Effect for Quantum Computation and Control

Author(s): Gerardo A. Paz-Silva, A. T. Rezakhani, Jason M. Dominy, and D. A. Lidar
It is well known that the quantum Zeno effect can protect specific quantum states from decoherence by using projective measurements. Here we combine the theory of weak measurements with stabilizer quantum error correction and detection codes. We derive rigorous performance bounds which demonstrate t...
