Signatures of bath-induced quantum avalanches in a many-body--localized system

Julian Léonard, Sooshin Kim, Matthew Rispoli +6

Strongly correlated systems can exhibit surprising phenomena when brought in a state far from equilibrium. A spectacular example are quantum avalanches, that have been predicted to…

Analyzing non-equilibrium quantum states through snapshots with artificial neural networks

A. Bohrdt, S. Kim, A. Lukin +5

Current quantum simulation experiments are starting to explore non-equilibrium many-body dynamics in previously inaccessible regimes in terms of system sizes and time scales. There…

Quantum critical behavior at the many-body-localization transition

Matthew Rispoli, Alexander Lukin, Robert Schittko +4

Phase transitions are driven by collective fluctuations of a system's constituents that emerge at a critical point. This mechanism has been extensively explored for classical and q…

Quantum Virtual Cooling

Jordan Cotler, Soonwon Choi, Alexander Lukin +10

We propose a quantum information based scheme to reduce the temperature of quantum many-body systems, and access regimes beyond the current capability of conventional cooling techn…

Probing entanglement in a many-body-localized system

Alexander Lukin, Matthew Rispoli, Robert Schittko +6

An interacting quantum system that is subject to disorder may cease to thermalize due to localization of its constituents, thereby marking the breakdown of thermodynamics. The key…

Microscopy of the interacting Harper-Hofstadter model in the few-body limit

M. Eric Tai, Alexander Lukin, Matthew Rispoli +7

The interplay of magnetic fields and interacting particles can lead to exotic phases of matter exhibiting topological order and high degrees of spatial entanglement. While these ph…

Quantum thermalization through entanglement in an isolated many-body system

Adam M. Kaufman, M. Eric Tai, Alexander Lukin +4

The concept of entropy is fundamental to thermalization, yet appears at odds with basic principles in quantum mechanics. Statistical mechanics relies on the maximization of entropy…
