Coherent delocalization in the light-matter interaction
(University of Waterloo, 2020-10-08)In this thesis, we study coherent delocalization in the light-matter interaction: we investigate how the coherent center of mass delocalization of a first quantized system affects its interaction with a second quantized ... -
Correlation harvesting in the presence of Unruh and Hawking effects
(University of Waterloo, 2023-07-14)Quantum field theory (QFT) in curved spacetime is a study of quantum fields under the influence of the relativistic motion of particles or spacetime curvature. The famous outcomes of this subject are the Unruh and Hawking ... -
Experimental prospects for detecting the quantum nature of spacetime
(University of Waterloo, 2017-09-21)This thesis is concerned with advancing the confrontation between relativistic quantum information (RQI) and experiment. We investigate the lessons that some present-day experiments can teach us about the relationship ... -
Measurements of quantum fields and the Unruh effect: a particle detector perspective
(University of Waterloo, 2021-11-19)This thesis is devoted to the study of detector models in quantum field theory. A detector model aims to describe a hypothetical physical situation, realistic or not, in which a measurement is performed on a quantum field ...
