Equilibrium and non-equilibrium phases of microwave-dressed polar molecules beyond rotational symmetries
Matteo Ciardi, Andreas Schindewolf, Tim Langen +1
Recent experiments on molecular droplets have opened a new frontier of self-organization in strongly dipolar quantum matter. Microwave-dressing of polar molecules permits to tune b…
Strongly dipolar molecular Bose-Einstein condensates: From few- to many-body physics
Andreas Schindewolf, Jens Hertkorn, Ian Stevenson +8
Recent advances in molecular cooling have enabled the realization of strongly dipolar Bose--Einstein condensates (BECs) of molecules, and BECs of many different molecular species m…
Quantum Dissipative Continuous Time Crystals
Felix Russo, Thomas Pohl
Continuous time crystals, i.e., nonequilibrium phases with a spontaneously broken continuous time-translational symmetry, have been studied and recently observed in the long-time d…
Self-bound monolayer crystals of ultracold polar molecules
Matteo Ciardi, Kasper Rønning Pedersen, Tim Langen +1
We investigate the physics of ultracold dipolar molecules using path-integral quantum Monte Carlo simulations, and construct the complete phase diagram extending from weak to stron…
Transitional supersolidity in ion doped helium droplets
Juan Carlos Acosta Matos, Panos Giannakeas, Matteo Ciardi +2
He nanodroplets doped with an alkali ion feature a snowball of crystallized layers surrounded by superfluid helium. For large droplets, we predict that a transitional supersoli…
