Experimental Observation of a Generalized Gibbs Ensemble
Tim Langen, Sebastian Erne, Remi Geiger +7
The connection between the non-equilibrium dynamics of isolated quantum many-body systems and statistical mechanics is a fundamental open question. It is generally believed that th…
Ultracold atoms out of equilibrium
Tim Langen, Remi Geiger, Jörg Schmiedmayer
The relaxation of isolated quantum many-body systems is a major unsolved problem connecting statistical and quantum physics. Studying such relaxation processes remains a challenge…
Local emergence of thermal correlations in an isolated quantum many-body system
Tim Langen, Remi Geiger, Maximilian Kuhnert +2
We experimentally demonstrate how thermal properties in an non-equilibrium quantum many- body system emerge locally, spread in space and time, and finally lead to the globally rela…
Prethermalization in one-dimensional Bose gases: description by a stochastic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process
Tim Langen, Michael Gring, Maximilian Kuhnert +5
We experimentally study the relaxation dynamics of a coherently split one-dimensional Bose gas using matterwave interference. Measuring the full probability distributions of interf…
Prethermalization Revealed by the Relaxation Dynamics of Full Distribution Functions
David Adu Smith, Michael Gring, Tim Langen +7
We detail the experimental observation of the non-equilibrium many-body phenomenon prethermalization. We study the dynamics of a rapidly and coherently split one-dimensional Bose g…
Multimode dynamics and emergence of a characteristic length-scale in a one-dimensional quantum system
Maximilian Kuhnert, Remi Geiger, Tim Langen +6
We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of a coherently split one-dimensional (1d) Bose gas by measuring the full probability distribution functions of matter-wave interference. Obse…
