Prethermalization and Persistent Order in the Absence of a Thermal Phase Transition

Jad C. Halimeh, Valentin Zauner-Stauber, Ian P. McCulloch +3

We numerically study the dynamics after a parameter quench in the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model with long-range interactions ($\propto 1/r^{\alpha }$ with distance $r$), for…
