Description:
Author(s): T. H. Johnson, F. Cosco, M. T. Mitchison, D. Jaksch, and S. R. Clark Estimating the temperature of a cold quantum system is difficult. Usually one measures a well-understood thermal state and uses that prior knowledge to infer its temperature. In contrast, we introduce a method of thermometry that assumes minimal knowledge of the state of a system and is potentially … [Phys. Rev. A 93, 053619] Published Mon May 23, 2016
