Observation of a many-body-localized discrete time crystal with a programmable spin-based quantum simulator
J. Randall, C. E. Bradley, F. V. van der Gronden +7
The discrete time crystal (DTC) is a recently discovered phase of matter that spontaneously breaks time-translation symmetry. Disorder-induced many-body-localization is required to…
Emergent hydrodynamics in a strongly interacting dipolar spin ensemble
Chong Zu, Francisco Machado, Bingtian Ye +12
Conventional wisdom holds that macroscopic classical phenomena naturally emerge from microscopic quantum laws. However, despite this mantra, building direct connections between the…
Floquet Phases of Matter via Classical Prethermalization
Bingtian Ye, Francisco Machado, Norman Y. Yao
We demonstrate that the prethermal regime of periodically driven (Floquet), classical many-body systems can host nonequilibrium phases of matter. In particular, we show that there…
Observation of a prethermal discrete time crystal
Antonis Kyprianidis, Francisco Machado, William Morong +9
The conventional framework for defining and understanding phases of matter requires thermodynamic equilibrium. Extensions to non-equilibrium systems have led to surprising insights…
Emergent ergodicity at the transition between many-body localized phases
Rahul Sahay, Francisco Machado, Bingtian Ye +2
Strongly disordered systems in the many-body localized (MBL) phase can exhibit ground state order in highly excited eigenstates. The interplay between localization, symmetry, and t…
Long-Range Prethermal Phases of Nonequilibrium Matter
Francisco Machado, Dominic V. Else, Gregory D. Kahanamoku-Meyer +2
We prove the existence of non-equilibrium phases of matter in the prethermal regime of periodically-driven, long-range interacting systems, with power-law exponent , where $d…
