So far, this possibility has been demonstrated only at a toy-model level, and only for systems involving one or two spins (or photons).

The two models consist of a trapped impurity atom that act as a temperature quantum sensor interacting with polar molecules reservoir, where dipole moments are aligned head-to-tail across the wires. Our model takes advantage of the adjustable interwire distance to accurately control the precision ultralow temperatures measurement. We show that the system undergoes a transition from Markovian to non-Markovian dynamics, which can be controlled by changing the interwire separation, the dipole-–dipole interaction (DDI), and the temperature. We characterize the thermometric performance using the quantum signal-to-noise ratio for both models and demonstrate that such a quantity exhibits a higher peak at ultralow temperature. We therefore emphasize that ultracold polar molecules are crucial for revolutionizing temperature sensing.","PeriodicalId":20146,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review A","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142205861","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Combining classical shadow tomography and randomized benchmarking, Helsen <i>et al.</i> introduced a method to estimate the linear properties of quantum processes. In this work, we focus on the estimation protocols of nonlinear process properties that are robust to state preparation and measurement errors. We introduce two protocols, both utilizing random gate sequences but employing different postprocessing methods, which make them suitable for measuring different nonlinear properties. The first protocol offers a robust and sound method to estimate the out-of-time-ordered correlation, as demonstrated numerically in an Ising model. The second protocol estimates unitarity, effectively characterizing the incoherence of quantum channels. We expect the two protocols to be useful tools for exploring quantum many-body physics and characterizing quantum processes.","PeriodicalId":20146,"journal":{"name":"Physical Review A","volume":"147 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142205860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we explore different methods for integrating this error mitigation technique into the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) algorithm for calculating the ground state of the <math xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><msup><mtext>HeH</mtext><mo>+</mo></msup></math> molecule at <math xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\"><mrow><mn>0.8</mn><mspace width=\"3.33333pt\"></mspace><mtext>Å</mtext></mrow></math> in the presence of experimental noise.

We find that time stretching and sideband detuning scaling fail to scale the noise on our particular hardware in a way that can be extrapolated to zero noise.
