Weak measurement effect on optimal estimation with lower and upper bound on relativistic metrology

Published 24 Jul 2018 in quant-ph | (1807.09362v3)

Abstract: We address the quantum estimation of parameters encoded into the initial state of two modes of a Dirac field described by relatively accelerated parties. By using the quantum Fisher information (QFI), we investigate how the weak measurements performed before and after the accelerating observer, affect the optimal estimation of information encoded into the weight and phase parameters of the initial state shared between the parties. Studying the QFI, associated with weight parameter $ \vartheta $, we find that the acceleration at which the optimal estimation occurs may be controlled by weak measurements. Moreover, it is shown that the post-measurement plays the role of a quantum key for manifestation of the Unruh effect. On the other hand, investigating the phase estimation optimization and assuming that there is no control over the initial state, we show that the weak measurements may be utilized to match the optimal $ \vartheta $ to its predetermined value. Moreover, in addition to determination of a lower bound on the QFI with the local quantum uncertainty, we unveil an important upper bound on the precision of phase estimation in our relativistic scenario, given by the maximal steered coherence (MSC). We also obtain a compact expression of the MSC for general X states.
