The $He^+$ ion on a plane subject to a constant magnetic field $B$ perpendicular to the plane is considered taking into account the finite nuclear mass. Factorization of eigenfunctions permits to reduce the four-dimensional problem to three-dimensional one. The ground state energy of the composite system is calculated in a wide range of magnetic fields from $B=0.01$ up to $B=100$ a.u. and center-of-mass Pseudomomentum $K$ from $0$ to $1000$ a.u. using a variational approach. The accuracy of calculations for $B = 0.1 $ a.u. is cross-checked in Lagrange-mesh method and not less than five significant figures are reproduced in energy. Similarly to the case of moving neutral system on the plane a phenomenon of a sharp change of energy behavior as a function of $K$ for a certain critical $K_c$ but a fixed magnetic field occurs.

We describe rapid, random-access loading of a two-dimensional (2D) surface-electrode ion-trap array based on two crossed photo-ionization laser beams. With the use of a continuous flux of pre-cooled neutral atoms from a remotely-located source, we achieve loading of a single ion per site while maintaining long trap lifetimes and without disturbing the coherence of an ion quantum bit in an adjacent site. This demonstration satisfies all major criteria necessary for loading and reloading extensive 2D arrays, as will be required for large-scale quantum information processing. Moreover, the already high loading rate can be increased by loading ions in parallel with only a concomitant increase in photo-ionization laser power and no need for additional atomic flux.
In an ion trap quantum computer, collective motional modes are used to entangle two or more qubits in order to execute multi-qubit logical gates. Any residual entanglement between the internal and motional states of the ions results in loss of fidelity, especially when there are many spectator ions in the crystal. We propose using a frequency-modulated (FM) driving force to minimize such errors. In simulation, we obtained an optimized FM two-qubit gate that can suppress errors to less than 0.01% and is robust against frequency drifts over $pm$1 kHz. Experimentally, we have obtained a two-qubit gate fidelity of $98.3(4)%$, a state-of-the-art result for two-qubit gates with 5 ions.
We extend the class of QM problems which permit for quasi-exact solutions. Specifically, we consider planar motion of two interacting charges in a constant uniform magnetic field. While Turbiner and Escobar-Ruiz (2013) addressed the case of the Coulomb interaction between the particles, we explore three other potentials. We do this by reducing the appropriate Hamiltonians to the second-order polynomials in the generators of the representation of $SL(2,C)$ group in the differential form. This allows us to perform partial diagonalisation of the Hamiltonian, and to reduce the search for the first few energies and the corresponding wave functions to an algebraic procedure.
We provide a comprehensive theoretical framework for describing the dynamics of a single trapped ion interacting with a neutral buffer gas, thus extending our previous studies on buffer-gas cooling of ions beyond the critical mass ratio [B. Holtkemeier et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 233003 (2016)]. By transforming the collisional processes into a frame, where the ions micromotion is assigned to the buffer gas atoms, our model allows one to investigate the influence of non-homogeneous buffer gas configurations as well as higher multipole orders of the radio-frequency trap in great detail. Depending on the neutral-to-ion mass ratio, three regimes of sympathetic cooling are identified which are characterized by the form of the ions energy distribution in equilibrium. We provide analytic expressions and numerical simulations of the ions energy distribution, spatial profile and cooling rates for these different regimes. Based on these findings, a method for actively decreasing the ions energy by reducing the spatial expansion of the buffer gas arises (Forced Sympathetic Cooling).
The problem of photoionization of atomic hydrogen in a white-dwarf-strength magnetic field is revisited to understand the existing discrepancies in the positive-energy spectra obtained by a variety of theoretical approaches reported in the literature. Oscillator strengths for photoionization are calculated with the adiabatic-basis-expansion method developed by Mota-Furtado and OMahony [Phys. Rev. A {bf 76}, 053405 (2007)]. A comparative study is performed between the adiabatic-basis-expansion method and our previously developed coupled-channel theory [Phys. Rev. A {bf 94}, 033422 (2016)]. A detailed analysis of the positive-energy spectra obtained here and those from other theoretical approaches shows that the adiabatic-basis-expansion method can produce more accurate positive-energy spectra than other reported approaches for low field strengths.
