• Abstract: We highlight some universal features concerning the role of spacetime curvature in the entanglement induced between quantum probes coupled to a quantum field in a suitable vacuum state. The probes are initially causally disconnected and non-entangled. We explore the parameter space $\{{\omega}, d_0, \boldsymbol{v}_0\}$ spanned by the energy gap $\omega$ of the detectors, and the initial values of separation distance $d_0$ and relative velocity $\boldsymbol{v}_0$, both covariantly defined in arbitrary curved spacetime. We also obtain numerical results in de Sitter spacetimes and use these to explore strong curvature regime, while also corroborating our perturbative results in arbitrary curved spacetime. Our analysis shows that curvature can induce entanglement features in certain regions of the above parameter space, in a manner which facilitates using entanglement as a probe of spacetime curvature.

While the current precision for observations of ultracold neutrons may not yet enable to probe them, they could still be relevant in the future or in alternative circumstances.

  We propose a novel cross-scope spatial-spectral Transformer (CST) to investigate long-range spatial and spectral similarities for single hyperspectral image super-resolution. Specifically, we devise cross-attention mechanisms in spatial and spectral dimensions to comprehensively model the long-range spatial-spectral characteristics. Experiments over three hyperspectral datasets demonstrate that the proposed CST is superior to other state-of-the-art methods both quantitatively and visually.

  We introduce an operational way to distinguish between the overall shift in the pulse wavepacket and its genuine deformation after propagation. We then apply our technique to quantum states of photons that are coherent in the frequency degree of freedom. We find that the quantum coherence initially present can enhance the deformation induced by propagation in a curved background.

  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.

• Schr\"odinger's cat for de Sitter spacetime [0.0]
  We provide a new phenomenological description for the response of quantum probes on a spacetime manifold in quantum superpositions. Applying this approach to static de Sitter space, we discover scenarios in which the effects produced by the quantum spacetime are operationally indistinguishable from those induced by superpositions of Rindler trajectories in Minkowski spacetime. The distinguishability of such quantum spacetimes from superpositions of trajectories in flat space reduces to the equivalence or non-equivalence of the field correlations between the superposed amplitudes.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
