A quantum phase transition in a quantum external field: Superposing two magnetic phases

We study an Ising chain undergoing a quantum phase transition in a quantum magnetic field. Such a field can be emulated by coupling the chain to a central spin initially in a superposition state. We show that – by adiabatically driving such a system – one can prepare a quantum superposition of any t...
