Quantum Chaos and Intrinsic Decoherence in Many Spin Systems: A New Experimental Approach Through the Loschmidt Echo

Easton

Conferencia; Gordon Research Conference, Quantum Science; 2018

1. To understand the relationship between the system dynamics and decoherence.2. Echoes in NMR: time reversal is unavoidably degraded by uncontrolled, internal or environmental, degrees of freedom.3. Central Hypothesis of Irreversibility: decoherence is tied to T2 (dipolar interactions).4. Complex many-body dynamics could rule an emergent mechanism of decoherence and irreversibility in the thermodynamic limit.
