• Abstract: A projective measurement on a quantum system prepares an eigenstate of the observable measured. Measurements of collective observables can thus be employed to herald the preparation of entangled states of quantum systems with no mutual interactions. For large quantum systems numerical handling of the conditional quantum state by the density matrix becomes prohibitively complicated, but they may be treated by effective approximate methods. In this article, we present a stochastic variant of cumulant mean-field theory to simulate the effect of continuous optical probing of an atomic ensemble, which can be readily generalized to describe more complex systems, such as ensembles of multi-level systems and hybrid atomic and mechanical systems, and protocols that include adaptive measurements and feedback. We apply the theory to a system with tens of thousands of rubidium-87 atom in an optical cavity, and we study the spin squeezing occurring solely due to homodyne detection of a transmitted light signal near an atom-photon dressed state resonance, cf., a similar application of heterodyne detection to this system [Nat. Photonics, 8(9), 731-736 (2014)].

  We introduce a general framework for simulating electron-photon coupled systems on small, noisy quantum devices. To achieve chemical accuracy, we exploit various symmetries in qubit reduction methods. We measure two properties: ground-state energy, fundamentally relevant to chemical reactivity, and photon number.

  daemonic ergotropy is introduced to properly describe and quantify this work extraction enhancement in the quantum regime. We show that the corresponding daemonic ergotropy takes values between the ergotropy and the energy of the corresponding unconditional state. The upper bound is achieved by assuming an initial pure state and a perfectly efficient projective measurement on the environment.

We experimentally observe the parity symmetry breaking of an ancillary Xmon artificial atom induced by the field of a lumped-element superconducting resonator. This result opens a way to experimentally explore the novel quantum-vacuum effects emerging in the deep-strong coupling regime.

  We consider an ensemble of Alkali atoms that are continuously optically pumped and probed. Due to the collective scattering of photons at large optical depth, the steady state of atoms does not correspond to an uncorrelated tensor-product state. We find and characterize regimes of Raman lasing, akin to the model of a superradiant laser.

  We propose applying time-dependent photo-emission spectroscopy, an established tool in solid state systems, in cold atom quantum simulators. We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.
