Non-Abelian Gauge Field Mechanics
Ivan Velkovsky, Carlos Camacho, Tomoki Ozawa +2
Non-Abelian gauge fields play a key role in describing the behavior of particles whose motion is coupled to internal degrees of freedom, such as their spin. Here, we experimentally…
Interaction-enabled topological pumping of Rydberg electrons
Chenxi Huang, Tao Chen, Kaden R. A. Hazzard +2
Topological pumping is a paradigmatic realization of quantized transport in band systems, yet its fate in strongly correlated regimes, especially with long-range interactions, rema…
Programmable Gauge-Field Textures with Ultracold Atoms in Momentum Space
Hongru Wang, Hang Li, Yichen Pan +4
Synthetic gauge fields with ultracold atoms offer a route to quantum matter in which electromagnetic environments can be designed rather than merely imposed. While the Harper-Hofst…
Dissipative Preparation of Correlated Quantum States in Dipolar Rydberg Arrays
Mingsheng Tian, Zhen Bi, Thomas Iadecola +1
Preparing correlated quantum states is essential for emerging technologies, but remains challenging in many-body systems. Here we propose a dissipative protocol that engineers nonr…
Generalized pulse design in Floquet engineering: Application to interacting spin systems
Ryan Scott, Bryce Gadway, V. W. Scarola
Floquet engineering in quantum simulation employs externally applied high-frequency pulses to dynamically design steady-state effective Hamiltonians. Such protocols can be used to…
Engineering frustrated Rydberg spin models by graphical Floquet modulation
Mingsheng Tian, Rhine Samajdar, Bryce Gadway
Arrays of Rydberg atoms interacting via dipole-dipole interactions offer a powerful platform for probing quantum many-body physics. However, these intrinsic interactions also deter…
