- Universal symmetry breaking passes the superfluid testNature Physics, Published online: 21 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02609-7 The Kibble–Zurek mechanism is a key framework for describing the dynamics of continuous phase transitions. Recent experiments with ultracold gases, employing alternative methods to create a superfluid, highlight its universality.
- Quantum-enhanced metrology with large Fock statesNature Physics, Published online: 20 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02619-5 Non-classical states with a large, definite number of photons can now be produced in a superconducting cavity and used for quantum-enhanced sensing.
- Assessment of the errors of high-fidelity two-qubit gates in silicon quantum dotsNature Physics, Published online: 20 August 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02614-w For solid-state qubits, the material environment hosts sources of errors that vary in time and space. This systematic analysis of errors affecting high-fidelity two-qubit gates in silicon can inform the design of large-scale quantum computers.
