• Abstract: We propose a sequential measurement protocol for accurate low-temperature estimation. The resulting correlated outputs significantly enhance the low temperature precision compared to that of the independent measurement scheme. This enhancement manifests a Heisenberg scaling of the signal-to-noise ratio for small measurement numbers $N$. Detailed analysis reveals that the final precision is determined by the pair correlation of the sequential outputs, which produces a dependence $N^2$ on the signal-to-noise ratio. Remarkably, we find that quantum thermometry within the sequential protocol functions as a high-resolution quantum spectroscopy of the thermal noise, underscoring the pivotal role of the sequential measurements in enhancing the spectral resolution and the temperature estimation precision. Our methodology incorporates sequential measurement into low-temperature quantum thermometry, representing an important advancement in low-temperature measurement.

  We present a thermometric scheme that does not thermalize with the sample whose temperature is measured. This is made possible thanks to a suitable interaction that couples the probe to the sample and to an auxiliary thermal bath known to be at a higher temperature. We numerically illustrate an extreme reduction in the number of measurements to attain a given precision.
