Title: Statistical time-domain characterization of non-periodic optical clocks
Authors: Dario Cilluffo
Abstract summary: We consider a different class of clocks based on clicking processes. We apply our results to a single coherently driven two-level atom under photoperiodic clock. Quantum Jump MonteCarlo simulations and photon counting waiting time distribution will provide independent checks on the main results.

Abstract: Measuring time means counting the occurrence of periodic phenomena. Over the past centuries a major effort was put to make stable and precise oscillators to be used as clock regulators. Here we consider a different class of clocks based on stochastic clicking processes. We provide a rigorous statistical framework to study the performances of such devices and apply our results to a single coherently driven two-level atom under photodetection as an extreme example of non-periodic clock. Quantum Jump MonteCarlo simulations and photon counting waiting time distribution will provide independent checks on the main results.

Using coherent feedback for a periodic clock [14.1128902075348]
We introduce a novel, fully quantum clock using a driven oscillator in the quantum regime and coherent quantum feedback. We experimentally implement the model using two superconducting cavities with incorporated Josephson junctions and microwave circulators. Under specific conditions of noisy driving, we observe that the clock oscillations are more coherent than the drive, pointing towards the implementation of a quantum autonomous clock.

Measurement-induced Clock in a Lattice Ring of Non-interacting Electrons [0.0]
We study the emergence of periodicity in a non-interacting steady-state quantum system inspired by quantum time crystals' spontaneous time-translation symmetry breaking. Our analysis uncovers time-periodic structures in steady-state two-time correlation functions, with periodicity linked to the system's group velocity.

A magnetic clock for a harmonic oscillator [89.99666725996975]
We study how the quantum dynamics transforms into a classical-like behaviour when conditions related with macroscopicity are met by the clock alone. In the description of this emerging behaviour finds its place the classical notion of time, as well as that of phase-space and trajectories on it.

We study the interplay of the quantum center-of-mass $-$ that can become delocalized $-$ together with the internal clock transitions. We show at the example of a Gaussian laser beam that the proposed quantum-clock interferometers are stable against perturbations from varying optical fields.

Powering an autonomous clock with quantum electromechanics [42.87502453001109]
We theoretically analyse an autonomous clock comprising a nanoelectromechanical system, which undergoes self-oscillations driven by electron tunnelling. We simulate the dynamics of the system in the quasi-adiabatic limit of slow mechanical motion, allowing us to infer statistical properties of the clock's ticks from the current auto-correlation function.

Reducing the instability of an optical lattice clock using multiple atomic ensembles [5.5276768686225335]
Research has focused on increasing the atom number, lengthening the coherent interrogation times, and introducing entanglement to push beyond the standard quantum limit. We experimentally demonstrate an alternative approach to reducing clock instability using a phase estimation approach based on individually controlled atomic ensembles in a strontium (Sr) optical lattice clock.

We show that quantum measurement engineered reservoirs can be used as athermal resources to drive the ticks of a quantum clock. Two and three level quantum systems act as transducers in our model, converting the quantum measurement induced noise to produce a series of ticks.
