• Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the quantum coherence extraction {between} two accelerating Unruh-DeWitt detectors, coupling to a scalar field in $(3+1)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. We find that quantum coherence as a nonclassical correlation can be generated through the Markovian evolution of the {detector} system, just like quantum entanglement. However, with growing Unruh temperature, in contrast to monotonously degrading entanglement, we find that quantum coherence exhibits a striking revival phenomenon. For certain detectors' initial state choices, {the} coherence measure will reduce to zero at first {and} then grow to an asymptotic value. We verify such coherence revival by inspecting its metrological advantage on the quantum Fisher information (QFI) enhancement. Since the maximal QFI {bounds} the accuracy of quantum parameter estimation, we conclude that the extracted coherence can be utilized as a physical resource in quantum metrology.

  We experimentally investigate the subsystem Loschmidt echo, a quasi-local observable that captures key features of the Loschmidt echo. In the short-time regime, we observe a dynamical quantum phase transition arising from genuine higher-order correlations. In the long-time regime, the subsystem Loschmidt echo allows us to quantitatively determine the effective dimension and structure of the accessible Hilbert space in the thermodynamic limit.

  We show how to harness scalable entanglement in an optical transition using 1D chains of up to 51 ions with state-dependent interactions that decay as a power-law function of the ion separation. We demonstrate this in a Ramsey-type interferometer, where we reduce the measurement uncertainty by $-3.2 pm 0.5$ dB below the standard quantum limit for N = 51 ions.

• Constraints on probing quantum coherence to infer gravitational entanglement [0.0]
  Gravity mediated entanglement generation so far appears to be the key ingredient for a potential experiment. With measurements performed only on the atoms, a coherence revival test is proposed for verifying this entanglement generation. We explore formulations of such a protocol, and specifically find that in the envisioned regime of operation with high thermal excitation, semi-classical models, where there is no concept of entanglement, also give the same experimental signatures.

• Quantum Statistical Complexity Measure as a Signalling of Correlation Transitions [55.41644538483948]
  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.

  We report on experimental tests of topological defect formation via the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model. We find that the quantum simulator results can indeed be explained by the KZM for open-system quantum dynamics with phase-flip errors. This implies that the theoretical predictions of the generalized KZM theory, which assumes isolation from the environment, applies beyond its original scope to an open system.
