The kicked top is a classically chaotic system, and macrorealism is a set of assumptions regarding how systems should behave according to classical intuition which is at present being tested in experiments. Using the no-signalling in time condition, a derivative of macrorealism, we define measures of disturbance due to measurements in order to study the effects of chaos. Restricting to cases which allow a meaningful study of this question, our results strongly suggest that chaos is unfriendly to macrorealism.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-12-15T19:43:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "disturbance", "macrorealism", "connect macroscopic realism", "classically chaotic system", "quantized kicked tops dynamics" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
