Shortcuts to adiabaticity
E. Torrontegui, S. Ibáñez, S. Martínez-Garaot +6
Quantum adiabatic processes -that keep constant the populations in the instantaneous eigenbasis of a time-dependent Hamiltonian- are very useful to prepare and manipulate states, b…
Symmetry Breaking and Topological Defect Formation in Ion Coulomb Crystals
Karsten Pyka, Jonas Keller, Heather L. Partner +9
Symmetry breaking phase transitions play an important role in nature. When a system traverses such a transition at a finite rate, its causally disconnected regions choose the new b…
Assisted finite-rate adiabatic passage across a quantum critical point: Exact solution for the quantum Ising model
Adolfo del Campo, Marek M. Rams, Wojciech H. Zurek
The dynamics of a quantum phase transition is inextricably woven with the formation of excitations, as a result of the critical slowing down in the neighborhood of the critical poi…
Shortcuts to adiabaticity in a time-dependent box
A. del Campo, M. G. Boshier
A method is proposed to drive an ultrafast non-adiabatic dynamics of an ultracold gas trapped in a box potential. The resulting state is free from spurious excitations associated w…
