Real-time collisions of fractional charges in a trapped-ion Jackiw-Rebbi field theory
Alan Kahan, Pablo Viñas, Torsten V. Zache +1
We propose and analyze a trapped-ion quantum simulator of the Jackiw-Rebbi model, a paradigmatic quantum field theory in (1+1) dimensions where solitonic excitations of a scalar fi…
Floquet-engineered vibrational dynamics in a two-dimensional array of trapped ions
Philip Kiefer, Frederick Hakelberg, Matthias Wittemer +4
We demonstrate Floquet engineering in a basic yet scalable 2D architecture of individually trapped and controlled ions. Local parametric modulations of detuned trapping potentials…
Localization of phonons in ion traps with controlled quantum disorder
A. Bermudez, M. A. Martin-Delgado, D. Porras
We show that the vibrations of a chain of trapped ions offer an interesting route to explore the physics of disordered quantum systems. By preparing the internal state of the ions…
Competing many-body interactions in systems of trapped ions
A. Bermudez, D. Porras, M. A. Martin-Delgado
We propose and theoretically analyse an experimental configuration in which lasers induce 3-spin interactions between trapped ions.By properly choosing the intensities and frequenc…
Chirality Quantum Phase Transition in the Dirac oscillator
A. Bermudez, M. A. Martin-Delgado, A. Luis
We study a relativistic spin-1/2 fermion subjected to a Dirac oscillator coupling and a constant magnetic field. An interplay between opposed chirality interactions culminates in t…
Non-relativistic limit in the 2+1 Dirac Oscillator: A Ramsey Interferometry Effect
A. Bermudez, M. A. Martin-Delgado, A. Luis
We study the non-relativistic limit of a paradigmatic model in Relativistic Quantum Mechanics, the two-dimensional Dirac oscillator. Remarkably, we find a novel kind of Zitterbeweg…
