Formation of Quantum Phase Slip Pairs in Superconducting Nanowires

Macroscopic quantum tunneling is a fundamental phenomenon of quantum mechanics related to the actively debated topic of quantum-to-classical transition. The ability to realize macroscopic quantum tunneling affects implementation of qubit-based quantum computing schemes and their protection against d...
