Observation of Stark many-body localization without disorder
W. Morong, F. Liu, P. Becker +7
Thermalization is a ubiquitous process of statistical physics, in which details of few-body observables are washed out in favor of a featureless steady state. Even in isolated quan…
Observation of Domain Wall Confinement and Dynamics in a Quantum Simulator
W. L. Tan, P. Becker, F. Liu +11
Confinement is a ubiquitous mechanism in nature, whereby particles feel an attractive force that increases without bound as they separate. A prominent example is color confinement…
Quantum Approximate Optimization of the Long-Range Ising Model with a Trapped-Ion Quantum Simulator
G. Pagano, A. Bapat, P. Becker +13
Quantum computers and simulators may offer significant advantages over their classical counterparts, providing insights into quantum many-body systems and possibly improving perfor…
Cryogenic Trapped-Ion System for Large Scale Quantum Simulation
G. Pagano, P. W. Hess, H. B. Kaplan +9
We present a cryogenic ion trapping system designed for large scale quantum simulation of spin models. Our apparatus is based on a segmented-blade ion trap enclosed in a 4 K cryost…
Observation of a Many-Body Dynamical Phase Transition with a 53-Qubit Quantum Simulator
J. Zhang, G. Pagano, P. W. Hess +6
A quantum simulator is a restricted class of quantum computer that controls the interactions between quantum bits in a way that can be mapped to certain difficult quantum many-body…
Non-thermalization in trapped atomic ion spin chains
P. W. Hess, P. Becker, H. B. Kaplan +10
Linear arrays of trapped and laser cooled atomic ions are a versatile platform for studying emergent phenomena in strongly-interacting many-body systems. Effective spins are encode…
