Engineering quantum measurements to test the Zeno effect in levitated mechanics

Supervisor. Professor Hendrik Ulbricht. The quantum Zeno effect suggests repeated measurements can slow a system’s evolution. Could this be tested with a levitated nanoparticle? You will develop and calibrate measurements, model their effects on motion, and investigate how measurement changes its state. Read more
