Entanglement protection and generation under continuous monitoring
  Entanglement between two quantum systems is a resource in quantum information, but dissipation usually destroys it. In this article we consider two qubits without direct interaction and we show that, even in cases where the open system dynamics destroys any initial entanglement, the mere monitoring of the environment can preserve or create the entanglement, by filtering the state of the qubits. While the systems we study are very simple, we can show examples with entanglement protection or entanglement birth, death, rebirth due to monitoring.
