A review and reformulation of macroscopic realism: resolving its deficiencies using the framework of generalized probabilistic theories

D Schmid - Quantum, 2024 - quantum-journal.org
The notion of macrorealism was introduced by Leggett and Garg in an attempt to capture our
intuitive conception of the macroscopic world, which seems difficult to reconcile with our …

Leggett-Garg inequalities for testing quantumness of gravity

A Matsumura, Y Nambu, K Yamamoto - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
In this study, we determine a violation of the Leggett-Garg inequalities due to gravitational
interaction in a hybrid system consisting of a harmonic oscillator and a spatially localized …

Leggett-Garg macrorealism and temporal correlations

G Vitagliano, C Budroni - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
Leggett and Garg formulated macrorealist models encoding our intuition on classical
systems, ie, physical quantities have a definite value that can be measured with minimal …

Mass-Independent Scheme to Test the Quantumness of a Massive Object

D Das, D Home, H Ulbricht, S Bose - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
The search for empirical schemes to evidence the nonclassicality of large masses is a
central quest of current research. However, practical schemes to witness the irreducible …

Violation of noninvasive macrorealism by a superconducting qubit: Implementation of a Leggett-Garg test that addresses the clumsiness loophole

E Huffman, A Mizel - Physical Review A, 2017 - APS
The Leggett-Garg inequality holds for any macrorealistic system that is being measured
noninvasively. A violation of the inequality can signal that a system does not conform to our …
