- TITLE
- Quantum kittens, cats, combs and compasses: superposing coherent states for sensing, communication, computing and pleasure
- ABSTRACT
- Superpositions of coherent states, which have minimum uncertainty and follow, at least transiently, classical motion, constitute codes for quantum computing, enhance quantum communication and are advantageous for quantum sensing and metrology. I present a potted history of this field followed by our nuclear cat state reported as a theoretical proposal in Physical Review Research 6:013101 (2024) and realised experimentally as reported in arXiv:2405.15494 (fresh off the press: released 14 May 2024).
