1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

We quantitatively investigate the physical origins of the non-Markovianity measure proposed in our previous work, which can be directly interpreted as memory effects, i.e., the dependence of a quantum system's future evolution on its history. Using the properties of the trace norm and the trace distance, we find that the strength of memory effects in an evolution is upper (lower) bounded by the sum (difference) of two quantities. One originates from (bounded by) the change of environment state caused by the system, the other from (bounded by) the correlations between the system and the environment. The simulation results for the Jaynes-Cummings model show that the two origins may contribute to the memory effects in different manners, depending on the initial states of the environment and the system.
