  "abstract": "The minimal time required for a system to evolve between two different states is an important notion for developing ultra-speed quantum computer and communication channel. Here, we introduce a new metric for non-degenerate density operator evolving along unitary orbit and show that this is experimentally realizable operation dependent metric on quantum state space. Using this metric, we obtain the geometric uncertainty relation that leads to a new quantum speed limit. Furthermore, we argue that this gives a tighter bound for the evolution time compared to any other bound. We also obtain a Levitin kind of bound for mixed states. We propose how to measure this new distance and speed limit in quantum interferometry. Finally, the lower bound for the evolution time of a quantum system is studied for any completely positive trace preserving map using this metric.",
