Title: Long-range Ising interactions mediated by $\lambda\phi^4$ fields: probing the renormalisation of sound in crystals of trapped ions
Authors: G. Mart\'in-V\'azquez, G. Aarts, M. M\"uller and A. Bermudez
Abstract summary: Self-interacting scalar quantum field theory can be mapped onto a collection of multipartite-entangled two-level sensors. We show in this work that using always-on harmonic sources can simplify substantially the sensing protocol. In a specific regime, the effective real-time dynamics of the quantum sensors can be described by a quantum Ising model with long-range couplings.

Abstract: The generating functional of a self-interacting scalar quantum field theory (QFT), which contains all the relevant information about real-time dynamics and scattering experiments, can be mapped onto a collection of multipartite-entangled two-level sensors via an interferometric protocol that exploits a specific set of source functions. Although one typically focuses on impulsive delta-like sources, as these give direct access to $n$-point Feynman propagators, we show in this work that using always-on harmonic sources can simplify substantially the sensing protocol. In a specific regime, the effective real-time dynamics of the quantum sensors can be described by a quantum Ising model with long-range couplings, the range and strength of which contains all the relevant information about the renormalisation of the QFT, which can now be extracted in the absence of multi-partite entanglement. We present a detailed analysis of how this sensing protocol can be relevant to characterise the long-wavelength QFT that describes quantised sound waves of trapped-ion crystals in the vicinity of a structural phase transition, opening a new route to characterise the associated renormalisation of sound.

Simulating a quasiparticle on a quantum device [0.0]
We propose a variational approach to explore quasiparticle excitations in interacting quantum many-body systems. We benchmark the proposed algorithm via numerical simulations performed on the one-dimension transverse field Ising chain. We show that the localized quasiparticle states constructed with VQE contain accessible information on the full band of quasiparticles.

Thermal masses and trapped-ion quantum spin models: a self-consistent approach to Yukawa-type interactions in the $λ\!φ^4$ model [44.99833362998488]
A quantum simulation of magnetism in trapped-ion systems makes use of the crystal vibrations to mediate pairwise interactions between spins. These interactions can be accounted for by a long-wavelength relativistic theory, where the phonons are described by a coarse-grained Klein-Gordon field. We show that thermal effects, which can be controlled by laser cooling, can unveil this flow through the appearance of thermal masses in interacting QFTs.

Time-resolved Hanbury Brown-Twiss interferometry of on-chip biphoton frequency combs using Vernier phase modulation [0.0]
Biphoton frequency combs (BFCs) are promising quantum sources for large-scale and high-dimensional quantum information and networking systems. Measurement of the temporal auto-correlation function of the unheralded signal or idler photons comprising the BFC is a key tool for characterizing their spectral purity. We propose a scheme to circumvent this challenge through electro-optic phase modulation.
