We calculate precision bounds for estimating the gradient of the magnetic field based on the quantum Fisher information for various types of ensembles, such as for example, a single atomic ensemble with an arbitrary density profile, where the atoms cannot be addressed individually and which is a very relevant case for experiments.
We present a method to find spin states for gradient magnetometry with two spatially separated atomic ensembles based on states for sensing a global phase shift, such as the GHZ state or the Dicke state.
