• Abstract summary: We theoretically investigate prospects for the creation of nonclassical spin states in trapped ion arrays by coupling to a squeezed state of the collective motion of the ions. The correlations of the generated spin states can be tailored for quantum-enhanced sensing of global or differential rotations of sub-ensembles of the spins.

• Abstract: We theoretically investigate prospects for the creation of nonclassical spin states in trapped ion arrays by coupling to a squeezed state of the collective motion of the ions. The correlations of the generated spin states can be tailored for quantum-enhanced sensing of global or differential rotations of sub-ensembles of the spins by working with specific vibrational modes of the ion array. We propose a pair of protocols to utilize the generated states and determine the impact of finite size effects, inhomogeneous couplings between the spin and motional degrees of freedom and technical noise. Our work suggests new opportunities for the preparation of many-body states with tailored correlations for quantum-enhanced metrology in spin-boson systems.

  Trapped ions present a natural platform for simulating the quantum dynamics of open quantum systems. We demonstrate the capability for adjusting the bath's temperature and continuous spectral density by adding randomness to fully programmable control parameters. The experimental outcomes closely align with theoretical predictions, indicating successful simulation of open quantum systems using a trapped-ion system.

• Scalable spin squeezing in two-dimensional arrays of dipolar large-$S$ spins [0.0]
  We show that spin-spin interactions lead to scalable spin squeezing along the non-equilibrium unitary evolution in a coherent spin state. For sufficiently small quadratic shifts, the spin squeezing dynamics is akin to that produced by the paradigmatic one-axis-twisting (OAT) model. Spin squeezing with OAT-like scaling is shown to be protected by the robustness of long-range ferromagnetic order to quadratic shifts.

This unique coupling is found to enable control over the equilibrium magnon squeezing and a deterministic generation of squeezed even Fock states.

  We propose a mechanism to perform topological pumping in arrays of spin chains with complex geometries. We show that due to the topological protection, the quantum superpositions can be transported through the array against the effect of disorder. Our ideas can be realized in state-of-the-art quantum simulators such as cold atoms and superconducting qubit arrays.
