Quantum many-body models with cold atoms coupled to photonic crystals [PDF]
Nature Photonics, 2015 Using cold atoms to simulate strongly interacting quantum systems represents an exciting frontier of physics. However, as atoms are nominally neutral point particles, this limits the types of interactions that can be produced.

Cold and Ultracold Rydberg Atoms in Strong Magnetic Fields
Physics Reports, 2009 Cold Rydberg atoms exposed to strong magnetic fields possess unique properties which open the pathway for an intriguing many-body dynamics taking place in Rydberg gases consisting of either matter or anti-matter systems.

Topological quantum matter with cold atoms
Advances in Physics, 2018 This is an introductory review of the physics of topological quantum matter with cold atoms. Topological quantum phases, originally discovered and investigated in condensed matter physics, have recently been explored in a range of different systems ...

Multimode Collective Atomic Recoil Lasing in Free Space
Atoms, 2020 Cold atomic clouds in collective atomic recoil lasing are usually confined by an optical cavity, which forces the light-scattering to befall in the mode fixed by the resonator.

Gating Ratchet for Cold Atoms [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2008 We demonstrate experimentally a gating ratchet with cold rubidium atoms in a driven near-resonant optical lattice. A single-harmonic periodic modulation of the optical potential depth is applied, together with a single-harmonic rocking force. Directed motion is observed as a result of the breaking of the symmetries of the system.

Cold Heteronuclear Atom-Ion Collisions [PDF]
Physical Review Letters, 2010 We study cold heteronuclear atom ion collisions by immersing a trapped single ion into an ultracold atomic cloud. Using ultracold atoms as reaction targets, our measurement is sensitive to elastic collisions with extremely small energy transfer. The observed energy-dependent elastic atom-ion scattering rate deviates significantly from the prediction of

Many-body quantum chaos in stroboscopically-driven cold atoms
Communications Physics, 2023 In quantum chaotic systems, the spectral form factor (SFF), defined as the Fourier transform of two-level spectral correlation function, is known to follow random matrix theory (RMT), namely a ‘ramp’ followed by a ‘plateau’ in late times.

Superfluids, Fluctuations and Disorder
Applied Sciences, 2019 We present a field-theory description of ultracold bosonic atoms in the presence of a disordered external potential. By means of functional integration techniques, we aim to investigate and review the interplay between disordered energy landscapes and ...

Observation of spin-space quantum transport induced by an atomic quantum point contact
Nature Communications, 2021 Cold atoms have recently become a versatile platform for the study of quantum transport phenomena. Here the authors realize an alternative experimental scheme for quantum transport with cold atoms, by using spin-dependent impurity scattering in a spinful

New Journal of Physics, 2019 In this paper, we measure the spectrum of light scattered by a cold atomic cloud driven by a strong laser beam. The experimental technique is based on heterodyne spectroscopy coupled to single-photon detectors and intensity correlations. At resonance, we
