  1. 1. The Collapse of Decoherence : Can Decoherence Theory Solve The Problems of Measurement?

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Materialteori

    Author : Karl Herlin; [2023]
    Keywords : quantum mechanics; quantum physics; philosophy of physics; interpretation of quantum mechanics; measurement problem; problem of preferred basis; problem of non-observability of interference; problem of definite outcomes; environment induced superselection rules; copenhagen interpretation; decoherence; irreducibility of classical concepts;

    Abstract : In this review study, we ask ourselves if decoherence theory can solve the problems of measurement in quantum mechanics. After an introduction to decoherence theory, we present the problem of preferred basis, the problem of non-observability of interference and the problem of definite outcomes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Modelling the Water Table in a Bog

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Tobias Bowley; [2023]
    Keywords : Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Over the past five years, an ongoing study at INES, Lund University, have examined the encroachment of trees and vegetation into a bog ecosystem in northern Scania, Sweden. While several factors have been identified as contributing to this ecological transformation, including, nutrient availability, and climate, the hydrological aspect remains a key area of investigation.

  4. 3. Simulating the Impact of Noise on Quantum Walk Algorithm

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Wilhelm Öberg; Sam Shahriari; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Quantum computing has recently shown promise for improving the efficiency of some classical algorithms. However, quantum computing suffers from issues in reliability due to the fundamental problem of quantum mechanics called decoherence. READ MORE

  5. 4. THE COUPLING OF A DOUBLE QUANTUM DOT TO MICROWAVE PHOTONS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Mohamed Abrash; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum computing; Qubit; Double quantum dot DQD ; Microwave resonator; Quantum integrated circuits; Sweet spots; Hybrid quantum circuits.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this study, we derive a mathematical description of a double quantum dot (DQD) embedded in a microwave resonator starting from classical electrostatics. DQDs are a promising platform for building quantum computers and have important applications in quantum sensing and the study of light-matter interactions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Braids and configuration spaces

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Geometri och fysik

    Author : Andersson Rasmus; [2023]
    Keywords : braids; braid groups; configuration space; algebraic topology; group theory; fundamental group; covering spaces;

    Abstract : A configuration space is a space whose points represent the possible states of a given physical system. As such they appear naturally both in theoretical physics and technical applications. READ MORE
