Dirac Spin Liquid Candidate in a Rydberg Quantum Simulator
Guillaume Bornet, Marcus Bintz, Cheng Chen +10
We experimentally investigate a frustrated spin-exchange antiferromagnet in a quantum simulator, composed of N = 114 dipolar Rydberg atoms arranged into a kagome array. Motivated b…
Non-Gaussian correlations in the steady-state of driven-dissipative clouds of two-level atoms
Giovanni Ferioli, Sara Pancaldi, Antoine Glicenstein +3
We report experimental measurements of the second-order coherence function of the light emitted by a laser-driven dense ensemble of Rb atoms. We observe a clea…
Measuring spectral functions of doped magnets with Rydberg tweezer arrays
Romain Martin, Mu Qiao, Ivan Morera +8
Spectroscopic measurements of single-particle spectral functions provide crucial insight into strongly correlated quantum matter by resolving the energy and spatial structure of el…
Observing weakly broken conservation laws in a dipolar Rydberg quantum spin chain
Cheng Chen, Luca Capizzi, Alice Marché +6
Integrable quantum many-body systems host families of extensive conservation laws, some of which are fragile: even infinitesimal perturbations can qualitatively alter their dynamic…
Probing spin-motion coupling of two Rydberg atoms by a Stern-Gerlach-like experiment
Gabriel Emperauger, Mu Qiao, Guillaume Bornet +7
We propose and implement a protocol to measure the state-dependent motion of Rydberg atoms induced by dipole-dipole interactions. Our setup enables simultaneous readout of both the…
Kinetically-induced bound states in a frustrated Rydberg tweezer array
Mu Qiao, Romain Martin, Lukas Homeier +8
Understanding how particles bind into composite objects is a ubiquitous theme in physics, from the formation of molecules to hadrons in quantum chromodynamics and the pairing of ch…
