Abstract

Time-dependent external flux is ubiquitous across circuit quantum electrodynamics and calls for accurate modeling. Contrary to long-held belief, it is recently predicted---but not yet verified---that the allocation of time-dependent flux cannot be arbitrary in the Hamiltonian. This study provides an experimental verification of this prediction by applying fast flux pulses to a fluxonium qubit and taking measurements of the quantum state following the pulses. Given the widespread use of time-dependent flux in experiments with superconducting qubits, verification of this theory is critical to our understanding of circuit quantum electrodynamics.
