论文摘要

尽管它们具有不可分割的量子机械性质,但高能粒子对撞机实验的事件通常很少有明确的量子特征,这是由于数据的类型和收集的方式。我们对量子力学的一项特征进行了一般分析,即希尔伯特空间上两个正交状态之间的干扰,并投影到跨越撞机实验空间的状态的基础上。量子干扰的识别可以被视为纯状态和混合状态之间的二进制区分,我们引入了几种统计措施,以量化纯状态下的干扰幅度相对于没有任何干扰的混合状态。提供了两个明确的示例,以证明一般形式主义的特征。

Despite their inextricable quantum mechanical nature, events at a high energy particle collider experiment typically have very few unambiguous quantum signatures, due the type of data and the manner in which they are collected. We present a general analysis of one feature of quantum mechanics, interference between two orthogonal states on Hilbert space, projected onto the basis of states that span a collider experiment observable space. Identification of quantum interference can be considered as a binary discrimination between a pure state and a mixed state, and we introduce several statistical measures that quantify the amplitude of interference in a pure state with respect to a mixed state that exhibits no interference. Two explicit examples from particle physics are provided to demonstrate features of the general formalism.
