    The following transpiler passes are yielded:

      :class:`UCJOperatorJW` gates to expose the underlying
      :class:`PrepareSlaterDeterminantJW` and :class:`OrbitalRotationJW` gates.
    - :class:`MergeOrbitalRotations` pass to merge the Slater determinant preparation
      and orbital rotation gates.
