Abstract
The impact of nonequilibrium environment effects on the accuracy of quantum parameter estimation is investigated, and it is found that these effects can significantly affect estimation accuracy. Using an individual estimation strategy reveals that the nonequilibrium effects consistently enhance accuracy, regardless of the coupling strength between the probe and its environment. In contrast, weak memory effects undermine estimation accuracy. When employing a multi‐parameter simultaneous estimation strategy, it is observed that the nonequilibrium effects consistently improve the advantages of simultaneous estimation, as analyzed by the ratio of total variances between the two estimation scenarios. However, the memory effects on these advantages depend on the coupling strength between the qubit and the environment. These findings suggest that appropriate parameters of a nonequilibrium environment can increase the quantum Fisher information (QFI), thereby enhancing the accuracy of quantum parameter estimation. These significant results are essential for improving parameter estimation accuracy in quantum systems interacting with nonequilibrium environments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
