Although time is one of the fundamental notions in physics, it does not have a unique description. In quantum theory time is a parameter ordering the succession of the probability amplitudes of a quantum system, while according to relativity theory each system experiences in general a different proper time, depending on the systems world line, due to time to time dilation. It is therefore of fundamental interest to test the notion of time in the regime where both quantum and relativistic effects play a role, for example, when different amplitudes of a single quantum clock experience different magnitudes of time dilation. Here we propose a realization of such an experiment with a single electron in a Penning trap. The clock can be implemented in the electronic spin precession and its time dilation then depends on the radial (cyclotron) state of the electron. We show that coherent manipulation and detection of the electron can be achieved already with present day technology. A single electron in a Penning trap is a technologically ready platform where the notion of time can be probed in a hitherto untested regime, where it requires a relativistic as well as quantum description.

We consider the relativistic tidal effects on frequency shift of clock-comparison experiments. The relativistic formulation for frequency shift and time transfer is derived in the gravitational field of a tidal, axisymmetric, and rotating Earth. With
the help of Love numbers describing the tidal response of solid Earth, we formulize the mathematical connection between tidal effects from the ground-based clock-comparison experiments and the local gravity tides from the gravimeters, which in turn provides us an approach to eliminate tidal influences on clock comparison with the local gravity tides data. Moreover, we develop a method of the perturbed Kepler orbit to determine relativistic effects of clock comparison for space missions, which allows more precise calculations comparing to the conventional method of unperturbed Kepler orbit. With this perturbed method, it can give the perturbation of relativistic effects due to the orbital changes under the influences of tidal forces, Earths oblateness etc. In addition, as the applications of our results, we simulate tidal effects in frequency shift for the clock comparison on the ground and also give some estimates for TianQin mission and GPS.
We demonstrate the transmission of single electron wavepackets from a clock-controlled source through an empty high-energy edge channel. The quantum dot source is loaded with single electrons which are then emitted with high kinetic energy ($sim$150
meV). We find at high magnetic field that these electron can be transported over several microns without inelastic electron-electron or electron-phonon scattering. Using a time-resolved spectroscopic technique, we measure the electron energy and wavepacket size at picosecond time scales. We also show how our technique can be used to switch individual electrons into different paths.
In this paper we consider non-relativistic matter-wave interferometer coupled with a quantum graviton bath $mathord{-}$ and discuss the loss of coherence in the matter sector due to the matter-graviton vertex. First of all, such a process does not le
ad to any entanglement, but nonetheless the on-shell scattering diagram can lead to loss of coherence as we will show. Importantly, we will show that graviton emission is the only one-vertex Feynman-diagram $simsqrt{G}$ which is consistent with the conservation of energy and momentum at the dominant order $simmathcal{O}(c^{-2})$. We will find that the resulting dephasing is extremely mild and hardly places any constraints on matter-wave interferometers in the mesoscopic regime. In particular, the show that the corresponding loss of coherence in the recently proposed experiment which would test quantum aspects of graviton $mathord{-}$ via entanglement of two matter-wave interferometers $mathord{-}$ is completely negligible.
We show that Wolf et al.s 2011 analysis in Class. Quant. Grav. v28, 145017 does not support their conclusions, in particular that there is no redshift effect in atom interferometers except in inconsistent dual Lagrangian formalisms. Wolf et al. misap
ply both Schiffs conjecture and the results of their own analysis when they conclude that atom interferometers are tests of the weak equivalence principle which only become redshift tests if Schiffs conjecture is invalid. Atom interferometers are direct redshift tests in any formalism.
The recent discovery of gravitational waves (GW) by LIGO has impressively launched the novel field of gravitational astronomy and it allowed us to glimpse at exciting objects we could so far only speculate about. Further sensitivity improvements at t
he low frequency end of the detection band of future GW observatories rely on quantum non-demolition (QND) methods to suppress fundamental quantum fluctuations of the light fields used to readout the GW signal. Here we invent a novel concept of how to turn a conventional Michelson interferometer into a QND speed meter interferometer with coherently suppressed quantum back-action noise by using two orthogonal polarisations of light and an optical circulator to couple them. We carry out a detailed analysis of how imperfections and optical loss influence the achievable sensitivity and find that the configuration proposed here would significantly enhance the low frequency sensitivity and increase the observable event rate of binary black hole coalescences in the range of $10^2-10^3 M_odot$ by a factor of up to $sim300$.
