Quantum phase transition from a superfluid to a Mott insulator in a gas of ultracold atoms
Markus Greiner, Olaf Mandel, Tilman Esslinger +2
For a system at a temperature of absolute zero, all thermal fluctuations are frozen out, while quantum fluctuations prevail. These microscopic quantum fluctuations can induce a mac…
Interactions enable Thouless pumping in a nonsliding lattice
Konrad Viebahn, Anne-Sophie Walter, Eric Bertok +5
A topological 'Thouless' pump represents the quantised motion of particles in response to a slow, cyclic modulation of external control parameters. The Thouless pump, like the quan…
DC transport in a dissipative superconducting quantum point contact
Anne-Maria Visuri, Jeffrey Mohan, Shun Uchino +3
We study the current-voltage characteristics of a superconducting junction with particle losses at the contacts. We adopt the Keldysh formalism to compute the steady-state current…
Spin- and Momentum-Correlated Atom Pairs Mediated by Photon Exchange and Seeded by Vacuum Fluctuations
Fabian Finger, Rodrigo Rosa-Medina, Nicola Reiter +3
Engineering pairs of massive particles that are simultaneously correlated in their external and internal degrees of freedom is a major challenge, yet essential for advancing fundam…
Quantum Fluctuation Dynamics of Dispersive Superradiant Pulses in a Hybrid Light-Matter System
Kevin Stitely, Fabian Finger, Rodrigo Rosa-Medina +5
We consider theoretically a driven-dissipative quantum many-body system consisting of an atomic ensemble in a single-mode optical cavity as described by the open Tavis-Cummings mod…
An accordion superlattice for controlling atom separation in optical potentials
Simon Wili, Tilman Esslinger, Konrad Viebahn
We propose a method for separating trapped atoms in optical lattices by large distances. The key idea is the cyclic transfer of atoms between two lattices of variable spacing, know…
