• Abstract: We explore long lived electronic coherences in molecules using shaped ultrafast laser pulses to launch and probe entangled nuclear-electronic wave packets. We find that under certain conditions, the electronic phase remains well defined despite vibrational motion along many degrees of freedom. The experiments are interpreted with the help of electronic structure calculations which corroborate our interpretation of the measurements

  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.

  We propose a technique that leverages free electrons that are coherently-shaped by laser pulses to measure quantum coherence in materials. We show how the energy spectrum of laser-shaped electrons enables measuring the qubit Block-sphere state and decoherence time. Our scheme could be implemented in an ultrafast transmission electron microscope (UTEM), opening the way towards the full characterization of the state of quantum systems.

• Free-Electron Shaping Using Quantum Light [0.0]
  Here, we show that control over electron pulse shaping, compression, and statistics can be improved by replacing coherent laser excitation by interaction with quantum light. We find that compression is accelerated for fixed optical intensity by using phase-squeezed light, while amplitude squeezing produces ultrashort double-pulse profiles. The generated electron pulses exhibit periodic revivals in complete analogy to the optical Talbot effect.
