Few is different: deciphering many-body dynamics in mesoscopic quantum gases
Juergen Berges, Sandra Brandstetter, Jasmine Brewer +27
Emergent macroscopic descriptions of matter, such as hydrodynamics, are central to our description of complex physical systems across a wide spectrum of energy scales. The conventi…
Superluminal modes in a quantum field simulator for cosmology from analog trans-Planckian physics
Christian F. Schmidt, Stefan Floerchinger
The quantum-field-theoretic description for the U(1)-Goldstone boson of a scalar Bose-Einstein condensate with time-dependent contact interactions is developed beyond the acoustic…
Response theory for quantum fields in isolation
Stefan Floerchinger
Response theory describes the reaction of observales to perturbations in external fields. We review this formalism for quantum fiels in isolation that have unitary time evolution.…
Towards a fluid-dynamic description of an entire heavy-ion collision: from the colliding nuclei to the quark-gluon plasma phase
Andreas Kirchner, Federica Capellino, Eduardo Grossi +1
The fluid-dynamical modeling of a nuclear collision at high energy usually starts shortly after the collision. A major source of uncertainty comes from the detailed modeling of the…
Emergent quantum field theories on curved spacetimes in spinor Bose-Einstein condensates: from scalar to Proca fields
Christian F. Schmidt, Simon Brunner, Stefan Floerchinger
We consider excitations of a spin-1 Bose-Einstein-condensate (BEC) in the vicinity of different mean-field configurations and derive mappings to emergent relativistic quantum field…
Emergent interaction-driven elliptic flow of few fermionic atoms
Sandra Brandstetter, Philipp Lunt, Carl Heintze +8
Hydrodynamics provides a successful framework to effectively describe the dynamics of complex many-body systems ranging from subnuclear to cosmological scales by introducing macros…
