Spatial bunching and antibunching of recombination events in a fermionic medium with pair quantum correlations

L. V. Il’ichev, S. V. Anishchik

Abstract

The spatial correlation of recombination events is considered for the model quantum state composed of singlet fermion pairs. The competition between the Fermi statistics, which leads to the antibunching of the events, and the entanglement transfer, which causes the tendency of the bunching of the events, is revealed.

Swapping of natural entanglement in the ground state of the Fermi gas mixture

Leonid V. Il'ichov

The paper considers the role of spin correlation swapping in spatial correlations between recombination events in a mixture of two ground-state Fermi gases. A simple geometrical structure of swapping transformation of the spin correlations was found and used. The results seem to be useful for studies of structure and the evolution of spin correlations under localized events of particle conversions in extended quantum systems.

Bunching and anti-bunching of localised particles in disordered media

Frank Schlawin, Nicolas Cherroret, Andreas Buchleitner

We consider pairs of non-interacting quantum particles transmitted through a disordered medium, with emphasis on the role of their quantum statistics. It is shown that particle-number correlations measured in transmission are strikingly sensitive to the quantum nature of the particles when they undergo Anderson localisation, due to bosonic bunching and fermionic anti-bunching in the scattering channels of the medium. The case of distinguishable particles is also discussed.

Second-order statistical properties of quantum chaotic beams

C. Bendjaballah, M. Pourmir

We consider the situation in which the field of quantum particles such as photons (bosons) or electrons (fermions) undergoes a significant attenuation during the detection process. We characterize the second-order statistical properties of the field by the bunching for bosons and the antibunching for fermions. Bunching and antibunching effects are derived from the time intervals distributions of the random point process of detection instead of the moments of the number of particles registered in a given time interval. Fields of both beams are supposed to be in chaotic states and have second-order time correlation functions of exponential profile and of arbitrary correlation time. A test is proposed for nonclassical states: the behavior of the antibunching function is a nondecreasing function near the origin of the time axis.

Noise of entangled electrons: Bunching and antibunching

Guido Burkard, Daniel Loss, Eugene V. Sukhorukov

Addressing the feasibility of quantum communication with entangled electrons in an interacting many-body environment, we propose an interference experiment using a scattering setup with an entangler and a beam splitter. It is shown that, due to electron-electron interaction, the spin correlation of the entangled singlet and triplet states is reduced by ${z}_{F}^{2}$ in a conductor described by Fermi liquid theory. We calculate the quasiparticle weight factor ${z}_{F}$ for a two-dimensional electron system. The current noise for electronic singlet states turns out to be enhanced (bunching behavior), while it is reduced for triplet states (antibunching). Within standard scattering theory, we find that the Fano factor (noise-to-current ratio) for singlets is twice as large as for independent classical particles and is reduced to zero for triplets.

Engineering statistical transmutation of identical quantum particles

Simone Barbarino, Rosario Fazio, Vlatko Vedral +1 more

A fundamental pillar of quantum mechanics concerns indistinguishable quantum particles. In three dimensions they may be classified into fermions or bosons, having, respectively, antisymmetric or symmetric wave functions under particle exchange. One of the numerous manifestations of this quantum statistics is the tendency of fermions (bosons) to antibunch (bunch). In a two-particle scattering experiment with two possible outgoing channels [C. K. Hong, Z. Y. Ou, and L. Mandel, Phys. Rev. Lett. 59, 2044 (1987)], the probability of the two particles to arrive each at a different terminal is enhanced (with respect to classical particles) for fermions, and reduced for bosons. Here we show that by entangling the particles with an external degree of freedom, we can engineer quantum statistical transmutation, which may cause fermions to bunch. Our analysis may have consequences on the observed fractional statistics of anyons, including non-Abelian statistics, with serious implications for quantum computing operations in the presence of external degrees of freedom.
