• Abstract: Among the open problems in fundamental physics, few are as conceptually significant as the measurement problem in Quantum Mechanics. One of the proposed solutions to this problem is the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) model, which introduces a non-linear and stochastic modification of the Schr\"odinger equation. This model incorporates two parameters that can be subjected to experimental constraints. One of the most notable consequences of this theory is the spontaneous heating of massive objects; this anomalous heating is dependent on the CSL parameters. In this work, we will revisit some astrophysical bounds previously found, and introduce new methods for testing the spontaneous heating in a variety of compact objects. Finally, we will compare our different bounds and discuss the benefits and shortcomings of each one.

  Describing the ground states of continuous, real-space quantum many-body systems is a significant computational challenge. Recent progress was made by variational methods based on machine learning (ML) ansatzes. We argue that combining SRW with path integral techniques leads to a new formulation that overcomes all three problems simultaneously.

Our unified approach achieves a distribution-free distance to the truth of over 20 times less than non-latent state-of-the-art baseline.

  Quantum simulation of lattice gauge theories (LGTs) aims at tackling non-perturbative particle and condensed matter physics. One of the current challenges is to go beyond 1+1 dimensions, where four-body (plaquette) interactions, not contained naturally in quantum simulating devices, appear. We show how to prepare the ground state and measure Wilson loops using state-of-the-art techniques in atomic physics.
