Abstract
We study the effect of thermal fluctuations on a probe qubit interacting with a Bose-Einstein condensed (BEC) reservoir. The zero-temperature case was studied in our previous work (Haikka et al 2011 Phys. Rev. A 84 031602), where we proposed a method for probing the effects of dimensionality and scattering length of a BEC based on its behavior as an environment. In this paper, we show that the sensitivity of the probe qubit is remarkably robust against thermal noise. We give an intuitive explanation for the thermal resilience, showing that it is due to the unique choice of the probe qubit architecture of our model.
