Bose–Einstein condensate soliton qubit states for metrological applications
Abstract We propose a novel platform for quantum metrology based on qubit states of two Bose–Einstein condensate solitons, optically manipulated, trapped in a double-well potential, and coupled through nonlinear Josephson effect. We describe steady-state solutions in different scenarios and perform...
