Quantum decoherence plays a pivotal role in the dynamical description of the quantum-to-
classical transition and is the main impediment to the realization of devices for quantum …

Open quantum systems (OQSs) cannot always be described with the Markov approximation,
which requires a large separation of system and environment time scales. An overview is …

Lanthanide-based single-molecule magnets are leading materials for achieving
magnetization blocking at the level of one molecule. In this paper, we examine the physical …

Quantum technologies represent a rapidly evolving field in which the specific properties of
quantum mechanical systems are exploited to enhance the performance of various …

The complete gravitational collapse of a body in general relativity will result in the formation
of a black hole. Although the black hole is classically stable, quantum particle creation …

Over the course of the past decade, decoherence has become a ubiquitous scienti? c term
popular in all kinds of research, from fundamental theories of quantum physics to …

Molecules comprising a large number of coupled paramagnetic centers are attracting much
interest because they may show properties which are intermediate between those of simple …

Perhaps the most important aspect of symmetry in physics is the idea that a state does not
need to have the same symmetries as the theory that describes it. This phenomenon is …

Experimental and theoretical progress toward quantum computation with spins in quantum
dots (QDs) is reviewed, with particular focus on QDs formed in GaAs heterostructures, on …

The dynamical convergence of a system to the thermal distribution, or Gibbs state, is a
standard assumption across all of the physical sciences. The Gibbs state is determined just …
