Localization of Macroscopic Object Induced by the Factorization of Internal Adiabatic Motion
To account for the phenomenon of quantum decoherence of a macroscopic object,
such as the localization and disappearance of interference, we invoke the
adiabatic quantum entanglement between its collective states(such as that of
the center-of-mass (C.M)) and its inner states based on our recent
investigation. Under the adiabatic limit that motion of C.M dose not excite the
transition of inner states, it is shown that the wave function of the
macroscopic object can be written as an entangled state with correlation
between adiabatic inner states and quasi-classical motion configurations of the
C.M. Since the adiabatic inner states are factorized with respect to each parts
composing the macroscopic object, this adiabatic separation can induce the
quantum decoherence. This observation thus provides us with a possible solution
to the Schroedinger cat paradoxComment: Revtex4,23 pages,1figur
Perturbational approach to the quantum capacity of additive Gaussian quantum channel
For a quantum channel with additive Gaussian quantum noise, at the large
input energy side, we prove that the one shot capacity is achieved by the
thermal noise state for all Gaussian state inputs, it is also true for
non-Gaussian input in the sense of first order perturbation. For a general case
of copies input, we show that up to first order perturbation, any
non-Gaussian perturbation to the product thermal state input has a less quantum
information transmission rate when the input energy tend to infinitive.Comment: 5 page
