Direct Experimental Observation of Quantum Mpemba Effect without Bath Engineering
The quantum Mpemba effect refers to the phenomenon of a quantum system in an initial state, far away from equilibrium, relaxing much faster than a state comparatively nearer to equilibrium. We experimentally demonstrate that this highly counterintuitive effect can occur naturally during the thermalization of quantum systems. Considering dipolar relaxation as the dominant decoherence process, we theoretically derive the conditions that can lead to the Mpemba effect in nuclear spins. After experi…

Why Doesn’t the Vision Pro Have More Immersive Video? Apple Is Slow-Rolling It
Apple has slow-walked the release of immersive video, creating a conundrum for the Vision Pro. Also: The company’s AI and smart home road maps are revealed; Meta prepares to sell its display glasses for under $1,000; and blood-oxygen tracking returns to Apple devices in the US.

Speeding up Pontus-Mpemba effects via dynamical phase transitions
We demonstrate that open quantum systems exhibiting dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) allow for highly efficient protocols implementing the Pontus-Mpemba effect. The relaxation speed-up toward a predesignated target state is tied to the existence of a long metastable time window preceding the DPT and can be exploited in applications to systematically optimize quantum protocols. As paradigmatic example for the connection between DPTs and quantum Mpemba effects, we study one-dimensional (1D) int…

Observation and Modulation of the Quantum Mpemba Effect on a Superconducting Quantum Processor
In non-equilibrium quantum many-body systems, the quantum Mpemba effect (QME) emerges as a counterintuitive phenomenon: systems exhibiting greater initial symmetry breaking restore symmetry faster than those with less. While theoretical exploration of QME has surged, experimental studies on its multidimensional modulation remain limited. Here, we report the observation and control of QME using a superconducting processor featuring a unique fully connected, tunable-coupling architecture that ena…
