Quantum Decoherence of Nitrogen‐Vacancy Spin Ensembles in a Nitrogen Spin Bath in Diamond Under Dynamical Decoupling

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Combining high‐order cluster‐correlation expansion with experiment, it is revealed that P1‐driven NV decoherence under dynamical decoupling deviates from semi‐classical scaling laws. The coherence‐time exponent depends on pulse number and bath conditions, demonstrating the necessity of a full quantum bath description.

Home-site fidelity in migratory honeybees

Nature, 2000
Home-site fidelity is well known in migratory animals, but not in social insects. Here we show that colonies of the giant honeybee Apis dorsata are able to find the same nest location even after seasonal migration. As worker bees do not have first-hand knowledge of the old nest site, the swarms must be guided by some form of genetic mechanism.

Site fidelity in predictable and unpredictable habitats

Evolutionary Ecology, 1993
Site fidelity, the tendency to return to a previously occupied location, has been observed in numerous species belonging to at least three phyla. In this paper I develop a general model using dynamic programming to investigate conditions under which fidelity to a previously occupied territory will be advantageous. The results predict that site fidelity

Defining null expectations for animal site fidelity

Ecology Letters, 2022
Abstract Site fidelity—the tendency to return to previously visited locations—is widespread across taxa. Returns may be driven by several mechanisms, including memory, habitat selection, or chance; however, pattern‐based definitions group different generating mechanisms under the same label of ‘site fidelity’, often assuming memory as
