• Abstract: The Grobe--Eberly doublet phenomenon occurs in photoelectron distributions when the remaining ion is dressed by a field. As was recently shown, the doublet can be interpreted as a signature of quantum entanglement between photoelectrons and strongly coupled ions. However, the dressed state nature of the ion prevents detection of the entanglement by straightforward coincidence detection. Here, we find that odd (zero-area) envelopes can substantially delay the generation of entanglement, but also modify the dynamics such that the doublet transforms into unique channel-resolved photoelectron distributions. Because these distributions can be used to correlate with the internal state of the ion, our proposed scheme opens up for detection of quantum entanglement, between photoelectrons and stongly-coupled ions, without a need for quantum phase measurements.

The underlying mechanism is the interplay between coherent scattering, which exhibits spatial fluctuations due to interference, and dissipation in the form of isotropic spontaneous decay.

  We present a photo-induced charging model for semiconductors, whose verification is enabled by a systematic interaction between trapped ions and photo-induced stray fields. In contrast to incoherent errors arising from the thermal motion of the ion, coherent errors are induced by the stray field, whose effect is significantly imprinted during the quantum control of the ion.

  A quantum simulation of magnetism in trapped-ion systems makes use of the crystal vibrations to mediate pairwise interactions between spins. These interactions can be accounted for by a long-wavelength relativistic theory, where the phonons are described by a coarse-grained Klein-Gordon field. We show that thermal effects, which can be controlled by laser cooling, can unveil this flow through the appearance of thermal masses in interacting QFTs.

  Quantum coherence between electronic states of a photoionized molecule and the resulting process of ultrafast electron-hole migration has been put forward as a possible quantum mechanism of charge-directed reactivity governing the photoionization-induced molecular decomposition. Here, we use x-rays both to create and to directly probe quantum coherence in the photoionized amino acid glycine. Delayed x-ray pulses track the induced coherence through resonant x-ray absorption that induces Auger decay and by the photoelectron emission from sequential double photoionization.
