We study how an arbitrary Gaussian state of two localized wave packets, prepared in an inertial frame of reference, is described by a pair of uniformly accelerated observers. We explicitly compute the resulting state for arbitrarily chosen proper accelerations of the observers and independently tuned distance between them. To do so, we introduce a generalized Rindler frame of reference and analytically derive the corresponding state transformation as a Gaussian channel. Our approach provides several new insights into the phenomenon of vacuum entanglement such as the highly nontrivial effect of spatial separation between the observers including sudden death of entanglement. We also calculate the fidelity of the two-mode channel for non-vacuum Gaussian states and obtain bounds on classical and quantum capacities of a single-mode channel. Our framework can be directly applied to any continuous variable quantum information protocol in which the effects of acceleration or gravity cannot be neglected.
We show that no device built according to the rules of quantum field theory can measure proper time along its path. Highly accelerated quantum clocks experience the Unruh effect, which inevitably influences their time rate. This contradicts the concept of an ideal clock, whose rate should only depend on the instantaneous velocity.
We demonstrate and characterize the extraction of genuine tripartite entanglement from the vacuum of a periodic cavity field. That is, three probe quantum systems (detectors) can become both bipartitely and tripartitely entangled without coming into causal contact, by means of interaction with a common quantum field. We do this by using an oscillator-detector model that forgoes the need for perturbation theory and which instead is solved exactly. We find that the extraction of tripartite entanglement is considerably easier than that of bipartite. As a secondary result, we also compare a periodic cavity with one that has Dirichlet boundary conditions. We find that the extraction of both bipartite and tripartite entanglement is more easily achieved using the former case.
We have found a sign error in our paper. This error affects parts of Sec. III.B and Sec. VI and Eq. (32). Here we present the corrected results. Equations (17), (20), (23), (32), and (40) are modified as
We study the effects of acceleration on fermionic Gaussian states of localized modes of a Dirac field. We consider two wavepackets in a Gaussian state and transform these to an accelerated frame of reference. In particular, we formulate the action of this transformation as a fermionic quantum channel. Having developed the general framework for fermions, we then investigate the entanglement of the vacuum, as well as the entanglement in Bell states. We find that with increasing acceleration vacuum entanglement increases, while the entanglement of Bell states decreases. Notably, our results have an immediate operational meaning given the localization of the modes.
We generalize 1 + 1-dimensional formalism derived by Ahmadi et. al. [Phys. Rev. D 93, 124031] to investigate an effect of relativistic acceleration on localized two-mode Gaussian quantum states in 3 + 1-dimensional spacetime. The following framework is then used to analyze entanglement of the Minkowski vacuum as witnessed by two accelerating observers that move either collinearly or noncollinearly. *
Urban and suburban public transport constitute basics of functioning of modern, urbanized metropolises. It is a comfortable, economic and ecological means of transportation. Thus, a stable and fast growth of this solution. One of its components is the power supply system. It should allow functioning of the whole transportation system, maintaining the following criteria: energy efficiency and modernity. These criteria have contributed to creation and modernization of power supply systems. Where it comes to DC systems, such an investment includes: replacing 6-pulse rectifiers with 12-pulse rectifiers and raising rated supply voltage. In this article, the authors have presented research results, based on measurements of electrical energy parameters before and after a modernization of a suburban transportation traction system. These parameters have been divided into two groups. The first consists of parameters mentioned in the EN50160 norm. Another group consists of parameters not mentioned in the norm. What has been presented are waveforms and graphs showing these parameters. In the final part of the article a discussion on reasonability of introducing new, modernized traction power supply system for suburban transportation has been performed.
In this paper, we make a practical approach to automated credibility assessment on Twitter. We describe the process behind the design of an automated classifier for information credibility assessment. As an addition, we propose practical implementation of TwitterBOT, a tool which is able to score submitted tweets while working in the native Twitter interface.
