Editorial: Eight Journals Introduce Letters

Michael Thoennessen

Phys. Rev. A 103, 030001 (2021) - Published 9 March, 2021

HIGHLIGHTED ARTICLES

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Designing a physical quantum agent

M. J. Kewming, S. Shrapnel, and G. J. Milburn

Phys. Rev. A 103, 032411 (2021) - Published 12 March, 2021

A physical agent must interact with its environment using actuators (to act on the environment) and sensors (to read the environment). In this article, the authors show that an optical agent which interacts with its environment using quantum mechanical actuators and sensors can experience a dramatic enhancement in its ability to learn its environment, and they study the thermodynamic properties of learning in such a physical agent.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Quantum unary approach to option pricing

Sergi Ramos-Calderer, Adrián Pérez-Salinas, Diego García-Martín, Carlos Bravo-Prieto, Jorge Cortada, Jordi Planagumà, and José I. Latorre

Phys. Rev. A 103, 032414 (2021) - Published 15 March, 2021

The authors present a quantum algorithm for the pricing of options, a financial derivative, which works in the unary representation of the value of the underlying asset. Compared to a previous binary algorithm, the present one is designed to be simple in terms of logic operations and in terms of connectivity requirements, while still giving sufficiently accurate results with less than 100 qubits.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Two quantum Ising algorithms for the shortest-vector problem

David Joseph, Adam Callison, Cong Ling, and Florian Mintert

Phys. Rev. A 103, 032433 (2021) - Published 26 March, 2021

Traditional public key cryptography will become obsolete when quantum computers are able to break it. The authors propose two quantum algorithms to solve the shortest-vector problem, which could play an important role in designing new cryptosystems for the postquantum era.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

High-energy-resolution measurements of an ultracold-atom–ion collisional cross section

Ruti Ben-shlomi, Meirav Pinkas, Ziv Meir, Tomas Sikorsky, Or Katz, Nitzan Akerman, and Roee Ozeri

Phys. Rev. A 103, 032805 (2021) - Published 5 March, 2021

The authors report on a method for scanning the collisional energies of a single ion with a cloud of ultracold atoms. This method is then applied to directly measure the collisional cross section between the two species, with high-energy resolution.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Nuclear polarization effects in atoms and ions

V. V. Flambaum, I. B. Samsonov, H. B. Tran Tan, and A. V. Viatkina

Phys. Rev. A 103, 032811 (2021) - Published 10 March, 2021

Nuclear structure effects lead to small corrections to electron energy-level shifts and isotope shifts in neutral atoms but have enhanced effects on heavy hydrogenlike ions. The authors analyze how nuclear structure effects scale with nuclear charge, mass number, and other parameters in various atoms and ions, with an emphasis on heavy hydrogenlike ions.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Analytical expression for the electronic stopping cross section of atomic gas targets for hydrogen projectiles

R. Cabrera-Trujillo

Phys. Rev. A 103, 032812 (2021) - Published 10 March, 2021

The author derives an analytical expression for the electronic stopping cross section of atomic gas targets at nonrelativistic velocities for hydrogen ions. The expression is based on an ab initio approach to account for the electronic excitations and charge exchange processes at low collision energies and the correct Bethe approach at high collision energies.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Quantum degenerate mixtures of Cs and Yb

Kali E. Wilson, Alexander Guttridge, Jack Segal, and Simon L. Cornish

Phys. Rev. A 103, 033306 (2021) - Published 9 March, 2021

The authors experimentally demonstrate the production of quantum degenerate Bose-Bose mixtures of cesium and ytterbium with attractive and repulsive interactions through sympathetic cooling. This development adds another system to the ultracold-atom toolbox, enabling future studies of quantum droplets and binary fluid dynamics.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

LETTER

Universal variational quantum computation

Jacob Biamonte

Phys. Rev. A 103, L030401 (2021) - Published 10 March, 2021

The author proves that the contemporary variational approach to quantum-enhanced algorithms enables a universal model of quantum computation. This brings the resources required for universal quantum computation closer to contemporary quantum processors.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

LETTER

Direct double ionization of the ${Ar}^{+}$ $M$ shell by a single photon

A. Müller, A. L. D. Kilcoyne, R. A. Phaneuf, K. Holste, S. Schippers, and A. S. Kheifets

Phys. Rev. A 103, L031101 (2021) - Published 17 March, 2021

In this combined experimental and theoretical study, the authors report on the measurement of the absolute cross section for direct single-photon double ionization of Ar $^{+}$ , which is orders of magnitude smaller than the corresponding cross section for a neutral target. The experimental data are in very good agreement with the results of a theoretical approach which describes the dominant two-step-one process as the product of a single ionization and a subsequent half collision.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

LETTER

Coherent seeding of the dynamics of a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate: From quantum to classical behavior

Bertrand Evrard, An Qu, Jean Dalibard, and Fabrice Gerbier

Phys. Rev. A 103, L031302 (2021) - Published 3 March, 2021

The authors study experimentally the spin dynamics of a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate under two different magnetic field regimes and discuss the competing effect of quantum fluctuations and a coherent seed. The experimental results are compared to theoretical predictions from classical, semiclassical, and quantum models.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

LETTER

Kelvin's chirality of optical beams

Sergey Nechayev, Jörg S. Eismann, Rasoul Alaee, Ebrahim Karimi, Robert W. Boyd, and Peter Banzer

Phys. Rev. A 103, L031501 (2021) - Published 2 March, 2021

In this paper, the authors clarify the physical significance of the two types of chirality that occur in optical beams, namely geometrical chirality (determined by the spatial distribution of the beam) and optical chirality (given by the local handedness of the electromagnetic field vectors). An experiment shows how the two types of chirality couple to each other.
