Popis: The ultimate precision limit in estimating the Larmor frequency of $N$ unentangled rotating spins is well established, and is highly important for magnetometers, gyroscopes and many other sensors. However this limit assumes perfect, single addressing, measurements of the spins. This requirement is not practical in NMR spectroscopy, as well as other physical systems, where a weakly interacting external probe is used as a measurement device. Here we show that in the framework of quantum nano-NMR spectroscopy, in which these limitations are inherent, the ultimate precision limit is still achievable using control and a finely tuned measurement.
