This fraction is even higher when smaller spatial scales are probed at high signal-to-noise ratio: the two most strongly lensed LRDs, A383-LRD1 and the newly discovered A68-LRD1, both have UV-bright companions at separations of only d ∼ 0.3 kpc, below the resolution limit of most unlensed JWST samples. We explore whether these ubiquitous red/blue configurations may be physically linked to the formation of LRDs, in analogy with the “synchronized pair” scenario originally proposed for direct-collapse black hole formation. In this picture, UV radiation from the companions, with typically modest stellar masses (M∗ ∼ 108−109 M⊙), suppresses molecular hydrogen cooling in nearby gas, allowing nearly isothermal collapse and the formation of extremely compact objects, such as massive black holes, supermassive stars, or quasi-stars. Using component-resolved photometry and spectral energy distribution modeling, we infer Lyman–Werner radiation fields of J21,LW ∼ 102.5–105 at the locations of the red components, comparable to those required in direct-collapse models, suggesting that the necessary photodissociation conditions are realized in many LRD systems. This framework provides a simple and self-consistent explanation for the extreme compactness and distinctive spectral properties of LRDs and links long-standing theoretical models for early compact object formation directly to a population now observed with JWST in the early Universe.","lang":"eng"}],"article_type":"original","project":[{"name":"Young galaxies as tracers and agents of cosmic reionization","grant_number":"101076224","_id":"bd9b2118-d553-11ed-ba76-db24564edfea"}],"month":"04","PlanS_conform":"1","OA_type":"gold","oa_version":"Published Version","publication_status":"published","publisher":"IOP Publishing","type":"journal_article","arxiv":1,"_id":"21846","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2041-8205"],"eissn":["2041-8213"]},"OA_place":"publisher","date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:48:33Z","title":"Connecting the dots: UV-bright companions of Little Red Dots as Lyman–Werner sources enabling direct-collapse Black Hole formation","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"department":[{"_id":"ZoHa"},{"_id":"JoMa"}]},{"status":"public","acknowledgement":"We appreciate technical support from Salvatore Bagiante, Evgeniia Volobueva, Lubuna Shafeek, Ali Bangura, and Zoltán Köllö, and scientific discussions with Daniel Agterberg, Johnpierre Paglione, Qimiao Si, Josephine Yu and Yue Yu.

One potential pairing mechanism, invoked in the related re-entrant superconductors UCoGe and URhGe, involves transverse fluctuations of a ferromagnetic order parameter. However, the requisite ferromagnetic order—present in both UCoGe and URhGe—is absent in UTe2, and neutron scattering shows instead that the magnetic susceptibility is peaked at an antiferromagnetic wavevector. Here, we measure the magnetotropic susceptibility of UTe2 across two field-angle planes. This quantity is sensitive to the magnetic susceptibility in a direction transverse to the applied magnetic field—a quantity that is not accessed in conventional magnetization measurements. We observe a very large decrease in the magnetotropic susceptibility over a broad range of field orientations, indicating a large increase in the transverse magnetic susceptibility. Because our technique probes the magnetic susceptibility in the long wavelength (q = 0) limit, this suggests that the strong transverse susceptibility arises from ferromagnetic spin fluctuations. These ferromagnetic fluctuations are likely important for understanding the pairing mechanism in UTe2, as all three superconducting phases of UTe2 surround this region of enhanced susceptibility in the field-angle phase diagram.","lang":"eng"}],"file_date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:32:12Z","oa":1,"article_processing_charge":"Yes","article_number":"3742","has_accepted_license":"1","DOAJ_listed":"1","PlanS_conform":"1","OA_type":"gold","month":"04","project":[{"grant_number":"101078696","name":"Gaining leverage with spin liquids and superconductors","_id":"bd968c70-d553-11ed-ba76-cde40b0aba64"}],"article_type":"original","arxiv":1,"type":"journal_article","publisher":"Springer Nature","publication_status":"published","oa_version":"Published Version","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"NanoFab"}],"OA_place":"publisher","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2041-1723"]},"_id":"21845","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"title":"Giant transverse magnetic fluctuations at the edge of re-entrant superconductivity in UTe2","department":[{"_id":"KiMo"},{"_id":"GradSch"}],"date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:36:00Z"},{"doi":"10.1103/r7pj-gl7r","intvolume":"         8","day":"29","scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","citation":{"ama":"Moller FS, Fernández-Fernández G, Schweigler T, De Schoulepnikoff P, Schmiedmayer J, Muñoz-Gil G.

However, extracting physical insights from experimental data is often hindered by measurement noise, limited observables, and incomplete knowledge of the underlying microscopic model. Here, we develop a machine learning approach based on a variational autoencoder (VAE) to analyze interference measurements of tunnel-coupled one-dimensional Bose gases, which realize the sine-Gordon quantum field theory. Trained in an unsupervised manner, the VAE learns a minimal latent representation that strongly correlates with the equilibrium control parameter of the system. Applied to nonequilibrium protocols, the latent space uncovers signatures of frozen-in solitons following rapid cooling, and reveals anomalous postquench dynamics not captured by conventional correlation-based methods. These results demonstrate that generative models can extract physically interpretable variables directly from noisy and sparse experimental data, providing complementary probes of equilibrium and nonequilibrium physics in quantum simulators. More broadly, our work highlights how machine learning can supplement established field-theoretical techniques, paving the way for scalable, data-driven discovery in quantum many-body systems."}],"external_id":{"arxiv":["2509.13821"]},"author":[{"first_name":"Frederik Skovbo","full_name":"Moller, Frederik Skovbo","last_name":"Moller","id":"43cbcc83-0564-11f0-a935-e37325525859"},{"first_name":"Gabriel","last_name":"Fernández-Fernández","full_name":"Fernández-Fernández, Gabriel"},{"first_name":"Thomas","full_name":"Schweigler, Thomas","last_name":"Schweigler"},{"first_name":"Paulin","full_name":"De Schoulepnikoff, Paulin","last_name":"De Schoulepnikoff"},{"first_name":"Jörg","last_name":"Schmiedmayer","full_name":"Schmiedmayer, Jörg"},{"full_name":"Muñoz-Gil, Gorka","last_name":"Muñoz-Gil","first_name":"Gorka"}],"volume":8,"file":[{"content_type":"application/pdf","access_level":"open_access","date_created":"2026-05-11T06:56:58Z","checksum":"dbfc58e1e176f7b63e0d274eb0d1bffa","file_size":1829628,"file_name":"2026_PhysicalReviewResearch_Moller.pdf","success":1,"relation":"main_file","creator":"dernst","file_id":"21852","date_updated":"2026-05-11T06:56:58Z"}],"user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","date_published":"2026-04-29T00:00:00Z","status":"public","acknowledgement":"We thank Sebastian Erne and Igor Mazets for helpful discussions and sharing codes for the transfer matrix sampling.

One potential pairing mechanism, invoked in the related re-entrant superconductors UCoGe and URhGe, involves transverse fluctuations of a ferromagnetic order parameter. However, the requisite ferromagnetic order - present in both UCoGe and URhGe - is absent in UTe2, and magnetization measurements show no sign of strong fluctuations. Here, we measure the magnetotropic susceptibility of UTe2 across two field-angle planes. This quantity is sensitive to the magnetic susceptibility in a direction transverse to the applied magnetic field - a quantity that is not accessed in conventional magnetization measurements. We observe a very large decrease in the magnetotropic susceptibility over a broad range of field orientations, indicating a large increase in the transverse magnetic susceptibility. The three superconducting phases of UTe2, including the high-field re-entrant phase, surround this region of enhanced susceptibility in the field-angle phase diagram. The strongest transverse susceptibility is found near the critical end point of the high-field metamagnetic transition, suggesting that quantum critical fluctuations of a field-induced magnetic order parameter may be responsible for the large transverse susceptibility, and may provide a pairing mechanism for field-induced superconductivity in UTe2."}],"has_accepted_license":"1","article_processing_charge":"Yes","day":"19","corr_author":"1","citation":{"ama":"Modic KA.

At the molecular scale, this process depends on the deposition of epigenetic modifications—such as methylation—that are regulated by complex biochemical networks and occur at specific regions on the DNA and chromatin. Here we show that despite the complexity of epigenetic regulation, dynamical scaling and self-similarity of DNA methylation marks emerge in embryonic development. Drawing on single-cell multi-omics experiments, super-resolution microscopy and statistical physics, we demonstrate that these phenomena originate in dynamical feedback between DNA methylation and the formation of nanoscale dynamic chromatin aggregates. These nanoscale processes lead to genome-wide increase in DNA methylation marks following a power law and self-similar correlation functions. Using this framework, we identify methylation patterns that precede gene expression changes in embryonic symmetry breaking.

Their high abundance at redshifts of z ∼ 6–8 and decline at lower redshifts suggest a transient origin. We propose that the spectral shape of LRDs originates from compact binary black hole systems, in which each black hole is surrounded by a mini-disk and embedded within a larger circumbinary disk. With a binary separation of ≲103 Schwarzschild radii, the Wien tail of a T ≃ 5000 K blackbody spectrum at the inner edge of the circumbinary disk produces the red optical emission, while the mini-disks power the UV continuum. Binary torques carve out a gap between the circumbinary disk and the mini-disks, setting the turnover wavelength of the V-shaped spectrum around the Balmer limit. This scenario naturally reproduces LRD spectra requiring only modest dust attenuation (AV ≲ 1 mag), resolving overestimated luminosities for LRDs in previous studies and alleviating a tension with the so-called Sołtan argument. This model predicts distinct spectral evolution as the binary orbit decays through binary disk interactions and gravitational-wave (GW) emission, linking early-stage “proto-LRD” binaries to the broader AGN population and late-stage “LRD descendants” to coalescing binaries detectable in GW experiments."}],"oa":1,"file_date_updated":"2026-05-11T07:07:22Z","article_number":"25","article_processing_charge":"Yes","DOAJ_listed":"1","has_accepted_license":"1","quality_controlled":"1","date_created":"2026-05-10T22:02:14Z","citation":{"short":"K.

In this\r\npaper, we present spectroscopic and photometric results of 15 transient sources pre-classified as AM CVn candidates. Our analysis confirms\r\n9 systems of the type AM CVn, 3 hydrogen-rich cataclysmic variables (accreting white dwarfs with near-main-sequence stars for donors),\r\nand 3 systems that could be evolved cataclysmic variables. Eight of the AM CVn stars are analysed spectroscopically for the first time,\r\nwhich increases the number of spectroscopically confirmed AM CVns by about 10%. TESS data revealed the orbital period of the AM CVn\r\nstar ASASSN-20pv to be Porb =27.282 min, which helps to constrain the possible values of its mass ratio. TESS also helped to determine\r\nthe superhump periods of one AM CVn star (ASASSN-19ct, Psh =30.94 min) and two cataclysmic variables we classify as WZ Sge stars\r\n(Psh =90.77 min for ZTF18aaaasnn and Psh =91.6min for ASASSN-15na).We identified very different abundances in the spectra of theAM\r\nCVns binaries ASASSN-15kf and ASASSN-20pv (both Porb ∼27.5min), suggesting different type of donors. Six of the studied AMCVns are\r\nX-ray sources, which helped to determine their mass accretion rates. Photometry shows that the duration of all the superoutbursts detected\r\nin the AM CVns is consistent with expectations from the disc instability model.

A variety of models with distinct complexity and data requirements have been developed and widely used to simulate melt under debris at different sites and scales, but their skills have never been compared. As part of the activities of the International Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS) Debris Covered Glacier Working Group, we present an intercomparison exercise aimed at advancing our understanding of model skills in simulating ice melt under a debris layer. We compare 15 models with different complexity at nine sites in the European Alps, Caucasus, Chilean Andes, Nepalese Himalaya and the Southern Alps of New Zealand, over one melt season. We run the models with measured meteorological data from automatic weather stations and estimated or measured debris properties. We consider four main model categories: (i) energy balance models that calculate melt by solving the physics of heat transfer to the debris layer, but require a high amount of input data; (ii) a simplified energy balance model; (iii) enhanced temperature-index models; and (iv) simple empirical temperature-index models that have been extensively used given their low data requirement but require calibration of their empirical parameters. Model performance is evaluated using on-site measurements of sub-debris melt (for all models) and surface temperature (for models based on the surface energy balance). Our results show that physically-based energy balance models and empirical temperature-index models perform in a distinct manner. At one end of the spectrum, simple temperature-index models are accurate when recalibrated or when using site-specific literature parameters, and show poor results when parameters are uncalibrated. At the other end, energy balance models show a range of performance: the most accurate energy balance models are those with the highest degree of complexity at the atmosphere-debris interface. An important data gap emerged from our experiment: the poor performance of all models at three sites was related to the poor knowledge of debris properties, and specifically of thermal conductivity. Future work should focus on both: (i) consistent data acquisition to evaluate existing models and support new model developments; (ii) advancing models by accounting for processes such as debris-snow interactions, moisture in the debris and refreezing. We suggest that a systematic effort of model development using a common model framework could be carried out in phase II of the Working Group.","lang":"eng"}],"ddc":["550"],"DOAJ_listed":"1","has_accepted_license":"1","article_processing_charge":"Yes","OA_type":"gold","PlanS_conform":"1","article_type":"original","month":"04","oa_version":"Published Version","publisher":"Copernicus Publications","type":"journal_article","publication_status":"published","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1994-0424"]},"OA_place":"publisher","_id":"21837","tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"department":[{"_id":"FrPe"}],"title":"DCG-MIP: The debris-covered glacier melt model intercomparison experiment","date_updated":"2026-05-18T06:12:56Z"},{"date_updated":"2026-05-18T07:34:57Z","department":[{"_id":"MiLe"}],"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","short":"CC BY (4.0)"},"title":"Electron–electrolyte coupling in AC transport through nanofluidic channels","_id":"21840","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1089-7690"],"issn":["0021-9606"]},"OA_place":"publisher","oa_version":"Published Version","publisher":"AIP Publishing","publication_status":"published","type":"journal_article","arxiv":1,"article_type":"original","month":"04","PlanS_conform":"1","OA_type":"hybrid","has_accepted_license":"1","article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","article_number":"134704","file_date_updated":"2026-05-18T07:31:23Z","oa":1,"ddc":["530"],"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"The transport properties of nanofluidic channels are usually studied under constant (DC) voltage or pressure driving. However, the frequency response under sinusoidal (AC) drivings offers rich insights into the time-dependent transport mechanisms. Inspired by recent electrochemical approaches, we investigate the couplings between ionic and electronic transport under AC driving. We show that conduction electrons of the channel walls participate in ionic current via capacitive electrochemical coupling, defining a critical frequency and length scale where electron-dominated conductivity emerges. We further analyze how electron–ion coupling modifies electro-osmotic flows and demonstrate that fluctuation-induced momentum transfer between the electrolyte and wall electrons produces distinct AC transport signatures, depending on the charge carrier polarity. Altogether, we establish a frequency-dependent transport matrix that couples ionic, electronic, and hydrodynamic flows. These findings establish AC nanofluidic transport as a powerful probe of interfacial phenomena under confinement and suggest new directions for engineering nanofluidic functionalities through electron–electrolyte coupling."}],"doi":"10.1063/5.0313352","intvolume":"       164","day":"07","scopus_import":"1","quality_controlled":"1","date_created":"2026-05-07T08:53:03Z","citation":{"ieee":"B.

Yet this paradigm is increasingly recognized as inadequate for explaining continuous phenotypic variation and the complex genetic architectures of the genotype–phenotype map. Modern genetics emerged from the early 20th-century synthesis of Mendelian and biometric schools of heredity, with R.A. Fisher demonstrating early on how multiple discrete loci could collectively produce continuous variation. Despite this fundamental insight, Mendelism—with its focus on single genes and standardized genetic backgrounds—became the dominant framework, shaping current genetics research and molecular biology as well as science education. The advent of large-scale genomic data has revealed yet again the limitations of this reductionist approach. Evidence from quantitative genetics now shows that most phenotypes arise from complex networks of many interdependent genes and their dynamic responses to environmental perturbations. Here we trace the historical roots of how Mendelian classical genetics departed from the biometric school to create the current predominant paradigm in genetics, despite fundamentally unresolved issues. Moving on from this one-sided paradigm will require systematic development of integrative, evolutionarily grounded experimental approaches that better capture the multigenic and context-dependent nature of inheritance. Achieving such an extended perspective will require methodological innovation, including advances in large-scale (e.g. automated) phenotyping. Dedicated research programs will be necessary to advance a new era of genetic research into the complex mechanisms underlying phenotypic variation.","lang":"eng"}],"ddc":["570"],"oa":1,"file_date_updated":"2026-05-18T07:48:45Z","article_number":"iyag024","article_processing_charge":"Yes (in subscription journal)","has_accepted_license":"1","status":"public","acknowledgement":"We thank a variety of further colleagues for the many inspiring discussions on the nature of heredity, especially the workshops in Berlin.

In this paper, we instead use recombination lines to infer the intrinsic properties of the central engine. Our analysis first reveals a tension between the ionizing properties implied from Hα and He ii λ4686. The high Hα EWs require copious H-ionizing photons, more than the bluest active galactic nucleus (AGN) ionizing spectra can provide. In contrast, He ii emission is marginally detected, and its low EW is, at most, consistent with the softest AGN spectra. The low He ii/Hβ (∼10−2, <20×  local AGN median) further points to an unusually soft ionizing spectrum. We extend our analysis to dense gas envelopes (quasi-star/black-hole star) and find that hydrogen recombination lines become optically thick and lose diagnostic power, but He ii remains optically thin and a robust tracer. Photoionization modeling with Cloudy rules out standard AGN accretion disk spectra. Alternative explanations include exotic AGN with red rest-optical emission, high average optical depth (>10) from gas/dust, and soft ionizing spectra with abundant H-ionizing photons, consistent with, e.g., a cold accretion disk or a composite of AGN and stars. The latter is an intriguing scenario since high hydrogen densities are highly conducive for star formation, and nuclear star clusters are found in the vicinity of local massive black holes. While previous studies have mostly focused on features dominated by the absorbing hydrogen cloud, the He ii-based diagnostic proposed here represents a crucial step toward understanding the central engine of LRDs.","lang":"eng"}],"doi":"10.3847/1538-4357/ae5bab","intvolume":"      1003","day":"01","citation":{"ista":"Wang B, Leja J, Katz H, Inayoshi K, Cleri NJ, De Graaff A, Hviding RE, Van Dokkum P, Greene JE, Labbé I, Matthee JJ, Mcconachie I, Naidu RP, Nelson EJ. 2026.

To that end, many methods have been proposed to prune models by reducing their number of nonzero parameters. Additionally, parameter-efficient fine-tuning, in which a much smaller number of parameters than the total contained in the model is updated during training, has become very popular, especially in the space of Large Language Models. At the same time, the increasingly routine deployment of machine learning in real-world applications has spurred a drive to make them more trustworthy - in the sense of, among other things, being unbiased, interpretable, and editable. In this thesis, we examine the interplay between efficiency and trustworthiness.\r\n\r\nFirst, we analyze the effects of model pruning on bias in computer vision models, demonstrating that increased sparsity leads to greater bias, largely as a function of increased model uncertainty in marginal cases. Based on this observation, we propose several bias mitigation techniques. Then, we demonstrate that example-specific model pruning can improve model interpretation methods while improving pruning efficiency to make example-specific model pruning feasible in real time. Then, we investigate the effectiveness of parameter-efficient and data-efficient model personalization via fine-tuning, demonstrating that it is highly feasible with very small computational and data resources. Finally, we consider efficiency in editing model knowledge using a custom synthetic data framework, demonstrating that parameter-efficient, low-rank fine-tuning frequently outperforms full-rank fine-tuning, and, additionally, that restricting which model blocks are fine-tuned frequently improves results. Together, the results in this thesis provide new insights and techniques for combining trustworthiness and efficiency during neural network inference and training.\r\n\r\n-----------------“In reference to IEEE copyrighted material which is used with permission in this thesis, the IEEE does not endorse any of [name of university or educational entity]’s products or services.

Two key requirements for this functionality are personalization–in the sense that the output should recognizably reflect the user’s own writing style—and privacy–users may justifiably be wary of uploading extremely personal data, such as their email archive, to a third-party service. In this paper, we demonstrate the feasibility of training and running such an assistant, which we call Panza, on commodity hardware, for the specific use case of email generation. Panza’s personalization features are based on a combination of parameter-efficient fine-tuning using a variant of the Reverse Instructions technique [1] and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) [2]. We demonstrate that this combination allows us to fine-tune an LLM to reflect a user’s writing style using limited data, while executing on extremely limited resources, e.g. on a free Google Colab instance. Our key methodological contribution is the first detailed study of evaluation metrics for this task, and\r\nof how different choices of system components–the use of RAG and of different fine-tuning approaches–impact the system’s performance. Additionally, we demonstrate that very little data - under 100 email samples - are sufficient to create models that convincingly imitate humans, showcasing a previously unknown attack vector in language models.

This trend has inspired practical and academic interest in model editing, that is, in adjusting the weights of the model to modify its likely outputs for queries relating to a specific fact or set of facts. This may be done either to amend a fact or set of facts, for instance, to fix a frequent error in the training data, or to suppress a fact or set of facts entirely, for instance, in case of dangerous knowledge. Multiple methods have been proposed to do such edits. However, at the same time, it has been shown that such model editing can be brittle and incomplete. Moreover the effectiveness of any model editing method necessarily depends on the data on which the model is trained, and, therefore, a good understanding of the interaction of the training data distribution and the way it is stored in the network is necessary and helpful to reliably perform model editing. However, working with large language models trained on real-world data does not allow us to understand this relationship or fully measure the effects of model editing. We therefore propose Behemoth, a fully synthetic data generation framework. To demonstrate the practical insights from the framework, we explore model editing in the context of simple tabular data, demonstrating surprising findings that, in some cases, echo real-world results, for instance, that in some cases restricting the update rank results in a more effective update.","lang":"eng"}],"external_id":{"arxiv":["2601.23153"]},"author":[{"id":"f9a17499-f6e0-11ea-865d-fdf9a3f77117","last_name":"Iofinova","orcid":"0000-0002-7778-3221","full_name":"Iofinova, Eugenia B","first_name":"Eugenia B"},{"first_name":"Dan-Adrian","id":"4A899BFC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Alistarh","full_name":"Alistarh, Dan-Adrian","orcid":"0000-0003-3650-940X"}],"user_id":"8b945eb4-e2f2-11eb-945a-df72226e66a9","date_published":"2026-01-30T00:00:00Z","status":"public","acknowledgement":"EI thanks Weiwei Yang, Janardhan Kulkani, and Kate Lytvynets for their advice and support in\r\ndeveloping an earlier version of the Behemoth library.

The former, the building block of matter, something we learn about in school and imagine it as some tiny marbles encircled by other tinier marbles. The latter, an electromagnetic wave, a light particle or an excitation of the electromagnetic field. Quantum mechanics tells us about the properties of these two entities. And even if it sounds, looks and writes counter-intuitive, it has proven right for over a century now.\r\n\r\nIn this work, I elaborate on how we tested the laws of quantum mechanics and how we used them learn more about the tiny building blocks of nature and the fields they use to talk to each other. The atoms we use, are artificial. Superconducting qubits, small electrical circuits with quantized energy levels behave like electrons that transition between different orbitals in an atom. One of the qubits' advantages, is also a big disadvantage. We design the circuits' energy levels and fabricate them in a cleanroom. This allows for arbitrary spaced energy levels but in contrast to real atoms, prevents two superconducting qubits from being alike. Still, this qubit platform is one of the frontrunners for future quantum computing technology and testing fundamental physics due to their scalability.\r\n\r\nWe interface superconducting qubits, which operate in the GHz regime, with microwave photons. We use 3D aluminum cavities as mediators between qubits and photons. The cavities allow for non-destructive readout of the qubit state, they shield the qubits from noise at the qubit frequency and they give us an easy way to frequency-tune these joint systems.\r\n\r\nWe need to operate superconducting qubits and their cavities at millikelvin temperatures in dilution refrigerators. At higher temperatures, superconductivity suffers and even worse, the environment is filled with thermal noise photons. This poses a fundamental limitation on the scalability of superconducting qubit devices. Also connecting multiple devices in different fridges does not work over room temperature links because the microwave photons used for this purpose will be covered in noise and the quantum information they carry, will be unusable.\r\n\r\nInfrared photons do not suffer from this noise problem since there are close to zero thermal noise photons at their frequencies at room temperature. We cannot simply interface superconducting devices with optical photons due their frequency mismatch and the destructive effect of optical photons on superconductors. Therefore, we use microwave-to-optics transducers that allow to convert microwave photons into optical ones and vice-versa. The transducers that we use are macroscopic electro-optic transducers using the Pockels effect in a disk-shaped Lithium Niobate whispering gallery mode resonator. By using a strong optical pump, photons from the two frequency domains experience a beam-splitter interaction and get converted from one to the other.\r\n\r\nWe measure the generated optical photons using elaborate optical setups, optical heterodyning and single photon detectors to gain knowledge about the qubit state or the converted microwave photons. Bridging the microwave and the optical world allows us to take advantage of both of their strengths but it also requires deep knowledge about both of their working principles.\r\n\r\nIn this work, we describe two experiments that our group conducted to showcase the opportunities that arise from interfacing superconducting qubits with optical photons but also the pitfalls, one may encounter on the way.\r\n\r\nIn the first experiment, we managed to all-optically read out a superconducting qubit. We show that the assignment fidelity, the probability that a measurement of the qubit state matches the prepared state, is close to equal for all-optical, microwave-to-optics and conventional microwave readout. We show T1 and T2 measurements for all three readout types and give an analysis of the noise caused by the optics. Finally, we show that the infrared light does not affect the qubit performance in a negative way but that the heating it causes does. This is an important insight that we used in the next experiment.\r\n\r\nThe second experiment is the upconversion of itinerant single microwave photons to the optical domain. We show that we can generate single microwave photons from a qubit-cavity system. We upconvert these single photons, measure them with a single photon detector and reconstruct their shape. By conducting a single photon Rabi measurement, we show correlations between the microwave and the optical domain. And by thorough signal-to-noise measurements and noise analysis, we find that we can generate single infrared photons with high signal-to-noise ratio 5.1 and low transducer added noise (<0.012 quanta). We show that this measurement creates a path towards entanglement of a superconducting qubit and an optical photon and what parameters need to be improved to achieve it. Additionally, this experiment is a proof of principle for an on-demand infrared single photon source. More generally, it allows to link microwave quantum technology in general to the optical domain.","lang":"eng"}],"ddc":["530","537","539"],"has_accepted_license":"1","article_processing_charge":"No","day":"12","corr_author":"1","alternative_title":["ISTA Thesis"],"citation":{"short":"T.
