Bogoliubov theory of a Bose-Einstein condensate of rigid rotor molecules

Joseph C. Smith, Seth T. Rittenhouse, Ryan M. Wilson +1

We consider a BEC of rigid rotor molecules confined to quasi-2d through harmonic trapping. The molecules are subjected to an external electric field which polarizes the gas, and th…

Dissipation induced dipole blockade and anti-blockade in driven Rydberg systems

Jeremy T. Young, Thomas Boulier, Eric Magnan +5

We study theoretically and experimentally the competing blockade and anti-blockade effects induced by spontaneously generated contaminant Rydberg atoms in driven Rydberg systems. T…

Emergent equilibrium in many-body optical bistability

Michael Foss-Feig, Pradeep Niroula, Jeremy T. Young +4

Many-body systems constructed of quantum-optical building blocks can now be realized in experimental platforms ranging from exciton-polariton fluids to ultracold gases of Rydberg a…

Collective phases of strongly interacting cavity photons

Ryan M. Wilson, Khan W. Mahmud, Anzi Hu +3

We study a coupled array of coherently driven photonic cavities, which maps onto a driven-dissipative XY spin- model with ferromagnetic couplings in the limit of stron…

Resonant wavepackets and shock waves in an atomtronic SQUID

Yi-Hsieh Wang, A. Kumar, F. Jendrzejewski +5

The fundamental dynamics of ultracold atomtronic devices are reflected in their phonon modes of excitation. We probe such a spectrum by applying a harmonically driven potential bar…

Two-state Bogoliubov theory of a molecular Bose gas

Brandon M. Peden, Ryan M. Wilson, Maverick L. McLanahan +2

We present an analytic Bogoliubov description of a BEC of polar molecules trapped in a quasi-2D geometry and interacting via internal state-dependent dipole-dipole interactions. We…
