Observation of ergodicity breaking and quantum many-body scars in spinor gases

J. O. Austin-Harris, I. Rana, S. E. Begg +3

We experimentally and theoretically demonstrate spinor gases driven by spin-flopping fields are excellent platforms for investigating ergodicity breaking and quantum scarring. We o…

Butterfly Effect and Spatial Structure of Information Spreading in a Chaotic Cellular Automaton

Shuwei Liu, J. Willsher, T. Bilitewski +5

Inspired by recent developments in the study of chaos in many-body systems, we construct a measure of local information spreading for a stochastic Cellular Automaton in the form of…

Control of dynamical phase transitions and non-ergodic relaxation via spinor phases

J. O. Austin-Harris, P. Sigdel, C. Binegar +3

Utilizing ultracold spinor gases as large-scale, many-body quantum simulation platforms, we establish a toolbox for the precise control, characterization, and detection of nonequil…

Detection of Spin-Spatial-Coupling-Induced Dynamical Phase Transitions in Real Time

J. O. Austin-Harris, Z. N. Hardesty-Shaw, C. Binegar +3

We demonstrate the real-time detection of dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) in lattice-confined spinor gases subject to a priori unknown time-variant interactions, via the tempora…

Lattice-enabled detection of spin-dependent three-body interactions

C. Binegar, J. O. Austin-Harris, S. E. Begg +3

We present the experimental detection of coherent three-body interactions, often masked by stronger two-body effects, through nonequilibrium spin dynamics induced by controllably q…

Inverted hysteresis and negative remanence in a homogeneous antiferromagnet

L. Opherden, T. Bilitewski, J. Hornung +7

Magnetic remanence - found in bar magnets or magnetic storage devices - is probably the oldest and most ubiquitous phenomenon underpinning technological applications of magnetism.…
