Last week papers (15th week 2012)...

I told you about the Nature Physics Insight on Quantum Simulation, so I will skip those 

Published

• "Ultra-high Q mechanical oscillators through optical trapping" by  D. E. Chang,  et. al., New Journal of Physics 14, 045002(2012).
  
  
  This is interesting: Reaching the quantum ground state of a mechanical oscillator at room temperature.The authors propose the use of optical forces to free a the characteristics of a mechanical structure from its material properties.

• "Collapse-revival dynamics and atom-field entanglement in the nonresonant Dicke model" by A. Alvermann, L. Bakemeier and H. Fehske, Physical Review A 85,  043803 (2012).
  
  
  A numerical studies of Rabi model, it's all coming back again and again and again. They study collapse and revivals out of resonance. 


• "Stimulated Emission from a Single Excited Atom in a Waveguide" by E. Rephaeli and S. Fan, Physical Review Letters 108, 143602 (2012).
  
  
  It's stimulated emission in a single-atom confined in a waveguide scenario. .


• "Uncertainty Relation for Photons" by I. Bialynicki-Birula and Z. Bialynicka-Birula,   Physical Review Letters 108, 140401 (2012).


Can you tell that I don't really want to write anything?

  
• "Solvability of the two-photon Rabi Hamiltonian" by I. Travenec, Physical Review A 85, 043805 (2012).
  
  
  I told you, it's the Rabi model again and again and again... here with two-photon transitions instead of one-photon.

  
• "Widely Tunable, Nondegenerate Three-Wave Mixing Microwave Device Operating
  near the Quantum Limit" by N. Roch et. al., Physical Review Letters 108, 147701 (2012).
  
  
  Now, the best for the last. I find this awesome, people are making better and better microwave resonators, emitters and now it is possible to do three-wave mixing in the microwave regime!

Preprints

• "Entanglement control in hybrid optomechanical systems" by B. Rogers et. al., arXiv: 1204.0780v1 [quant-ph].
  
  
  I'm too lazy to read it today but seems quite interesting...  


• "Producing and measuring entanglement between two beams of microwave light" by E. Flurin et. al., arXiv: 1204.0732v1 [quant-ph].
  
  
  I'm too lazy to read it today but entanglement between beams of microwave is interesting.
