Abstract Quantum correlations measured by measurement-induced disturbance (MID) in a two-qubit Heisenberg XY spin model with Dzialoshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction under intrinsic decoherence are investigated. MID is studied under various circumstances and the influences of the external dependencies on the final quantum state which has stable MID are discussed. Two kinds of initial quantum states are considered as well as different conclusions. MID appears to decay periodically during the processing of intrinsic decoherence; both DM interaction and intrinsic decoherence have a negative impact on the correlations. The MID of the stable state depends on several factors, except the parameter of the intrinsic decoherence. Moreover, we find a special initial state that is able to maintain the maximum quantum correlations during the processing of intrinsic decoherence.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
