In situ observation of chemistry in Rydberg molecules within a coherent solvent

Felix Engel, Shiva Kant Tiwari, Tilman Pfau +2

We often infer the state of systems in nature indirectly, for example, in high-energy physics by the interaction of particles with an ambient medium. We adapt this principle to ene…

Kaleidoscopes of Hofstadter Butterflies and Aharonov-Bohm caging from -root topology in decorated square lattices

A. M. Marques, J. Mögerle, G. Pelegrí +3

Square-root topology describes models whose topological properties can be revealed upon squaring the Hamiltonian, which produces their respective parent topological insulators. Thi…

Quantum fluctuations in one-dimensional supersolids

Chris Bühler, Tobias Ilg, Hans Peter Büchler

In one-dimension, quantum fluctuations prevent the appearance of long-range order in a supersolid, and only quasi long-range order can survive. We derive this quantum critical beha…

Ground-state stability and excitation spectrum of a one-dimensional dipolar supersolid

Tobias Ilg, Hans Peter Büchler

We study the behavior of the excitation spectrum across the quantum phase transition from a superfluid to a supersolid phase of a dipolar Bose gas confined to a one-dimensional geo…

Making statistics work: a quantum engine in the BEC-BCS crossover

Jennifer Koch, Keerthy Menon, Eloisa Cuestas +5

Heat engines convert thermal energy into mechanical work both in the classical and quantum regimes. However, quantum theory offers genuine nonclassical forms of energy, different f…

Observation of confinement-induced resonances in a 3D lattice

Deborah Capecchi, Camilo Cantillano, Manfred J. Mark +6

We report on the observation of confinement-induced resonances for strong three-dimensional (3D) confinement in a lattice potential. Starting from a Mott-insulator state with predo…
