AI总结:

本文利用量子Cramér--Rao界研究有限尺寸光学晶格钟估计引力势的精度极限,发现引力退相导致估计精度随时间非单调变化并产生精度极限,且该极限在层数足够多时与晶格钟细节无关。

摘要:

我们利用量子Cramér--Rao界评估了使用光学晶格钟估计引力势的精度极限,并比较了单层和多层光学晶格钟的结果。结果表明,使用有限尺寸光学晶格钟估计引力势的估计量方差下界作为时间的函数会反复发散并恢复。也就是说,由于有限尺寸光学晶格钟中的引力退相效应,引力势估计的精度不是时间的单调函数。此外,当试图避免下界发散时,该效应会产生一个估计精度极限。当光学晶格钟的层数足够大时,该极限与光学晶格钟的具体细节无关。计算表明,对于由一百万个镉原子组成的三维光学晶格钟,由于地球引力的作用,达到该极限所需的时间约为33小时,其他原子的结果大致相同。

英文摘要:

We evaluated the accuracy limit for estimating gravitational potential using optical lattice clocks by utilizing the quantum Cramér--Rao bound. We then compared the results for single-layer and multilayer optical lattice clocks. The results indicate that the lower bound of variance of the estimator of gravitational potential using finite-size optical lattice clocks diverges and recovers repeatedly as a function of time. Namely, the accuracy of the gravitational potential estimation is not a monotonic function of time owing to the effect of gravitational dephasing in finite-size optical lattice clock. Further, this effect creates an estimation accuracy limit when attempting to avoid the divergence of the lower bound. When the number of layers in the optical lattice clock is sufficiently large, the limit is independent of the optical lattice clock details. The time required to reach this limit is calculated to be approximately 33 hours for a three-dimensional optical lattice clock consisting of one million cadmium atoms due to Earth's gravity, and approximately the same for other atoms.
