  1. 1. On quantum systems and the measurement problem

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Nicolas Boulle; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum physics; the measurement problem; quantum information; Hilbert spaces; physical systems; unitary; collapse; Euler angles parametrization; Copenhagen interpretation; many- world; measure;

    Abstract : We focus on the Tensor Product Structure (TPS) of the Hilbert space and the fact that a choice in the TPS has an impact on the representation of the studied quantum system. We define the measurement problem in quantum mechanics and present some theories about quantum mechanics, each of them highlighting a different approach to quantum measurements. READ MORE

  3. 2. The Impact of Swampland Conjectures

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Daniel Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : String theory; Quantum gravity; Swampland program; Effective field theories;

    Abstract : The Swampland program is way of sorting effective field theories based on conjectures of how an effective field theory consistent with quantum gravity should look like. In this thesis we take a closer look at the No Global Symmetries Conjecture, the Weak Gravity Conjecture, the de Sitter Conjecture and the Trans-Planckian Censorship Conjecture. READ MORE

  4. 3. Comparing Quantum Annealing and Simulated Annealing when Solving the Graph Coloring Problem

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

    Author : Nora Odelius; Isak Reinholdsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum Computing; Quantum Annealing; Simulated Annealing; Graph Coloring Problem; Kvantberäkningar; Quantum Annealing; Simulated Annealing; Graffärgningsproblemet;

    Abstract : Quantum annealing (QA) is an optimization process in quantum computing similar to the probabilistic metaheuristic simulated annealing (SA). The QA process involves encoding an optimization problem into an energy landscape, which it then traverses in search for the point of minimal energy representing the global optimal state. READ MORE

  5. 4. Modulation of the optical properties of quantum dots by surface acoustic waves

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Tanguy Schetelat; [2023]
    Keywords : Nanophotonics; Quantum dots; Surface acoustic waves; Interdigital tansducers; Optomechanical coupling; Nanofotonik; Kvantprickar; Akustika yt-vågor; Interdigital tansducers; Optomekanisk koppling;

    Abstract : Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are considered to be a crucial part of future quantum technologies due to their enormous potential as efficient sources of single and indistinguishable photons. Single photons are necessary to transport quantum information over large distances through the existing global fibre optic network. READ MORE

  6. 5. Detective Quantum Efficiency in the Image Domain

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Per Lundhammar; [2022]
    Keywords : detective quantum efficiency; linear systems theory; projection domain; image domain; x-ray imaging; detektiv kvanteffektivitet; linjär-systemteori; projektionsdomän; bilddomän; röntgenavbildning;

    Abstract : We investigate the signal and noise transform characteristics from the projection domain to the image domain in a linear systems theory framework and predictions of the DQE within this framework are made. A simulation study of a photon counting silicon detector is made from which the energy information is used in order to produce synthetic monoenergetic images. READ MORE
