Title: “Quantum Zeno Dynamics in a 3D circuit-QED experiment”

Abstract

We present our observation of the quantum Zeno dynamics (QZD) in a 3D circuit-QED system, where an artificial atom, consisting of a superconducting circuit called a transmon, is coupled to the electric field of a microwave cavity resonator. The QZD is then observed by measuring the Wigner function of the fields at regular time intervals, by standard quantum tomography and reconstruction of the density matrix. We observe three examples of QZD, and analyze the observed decoherence with the help of quantum simulations of the system.
