Reduction of the Wavepacket: How Long Does it Take?
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the reduction of the wavepacket caused by the interaction with the environment occurs on a timescale which is typically many orders of magnitude shorter than the relaxation timescale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decoherence in Bose-Einstein condensates: Towards bigger and better Schrödinger cats
TL;DR: In this article, a quantum superposition of Bose-Einstein condensates in two immiscible internal states is considered and a decoherence rate for the resulting Schr\"odinger cat is calculated.
Book ChapterDOI
Reduction of the Wavepacket: How Long Does it Take?
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the reduction of the wavepacket caused by the interaction with the environment occurs on a timescale which is typically many orders of magnitude shorter than the relaxation timescale τ.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum discord cannot be shared.
TL;DR: This work revisits Bohr's postulate that if a measurement device is in a nonclassical state, the measurement results cannot be communicated perfectly by classical means, and shows that for pure system-apparatus states quantum communication does not provide any advantage when measurement results are communicated to more than one recipient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics near a Black Hole
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derive the smoothed particle hydrodynamic equations for a relativistic fluid in a static curved spacetime geometry and apply this technique to develop a three-dimensional numerical code for the study of fluid flows around black holes.
