Dynamical Quasicondensation of Hard-Core Bosons at Finite Momenta

22 October 2015

Our paper on the emergence of coherence far from equilibrium was published in PRL (PRL 115, 175301) and has an accompanying viewpoint in Physics.

Quantum Matter Stuck in Unrest

14 August 2015

We have observed a novel state of matter that, despite being interacting, never thermalizes. In this Many-Body Localized State, the Quantum Matter is literally stuck in unrest: Science 349, 842 (2015)

Individual tunnelling control in optical lattices

9 September 2024

Optical lattices are power quantum simulators with many applications in e.g. strongly-correlated and topological systems. However, up to now, they were limited in programmability since typically all tunnelling links were of the same strength. In this new paper, we show theoretically how local control over individual...
