Much of our knowledge of quantum systems is encapsulated in the expectation value of Hermitian operators, experimentally obtained by averaging projective measurements. However, dynamical properties are often described by products of operators evaluated at different times; such observables cannot be …

Geometrical frustration and long-range couplings are key contributors to create quantum phases with different properties throughout physics. We propose a scheme where both ingredients naturally emerge in a Raman induced subwavelength lattice. We first demonstrate that Raman-coupled multicomponent quantum gases …
We investigated turbulence in 2D atomic Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) using a minimally destructive, impurity injection technique analogous to particle image velocimetry in conventional fluids. Our approach transfers small regions of the BEC into a different hyperfine state and tracks their …

Weak measurement enables the extraction of targeted information from a quantum system while minimizing decoherence due to measurement backaction. However, in many-body quantum systems, backaction can have unexpected effects on wave-function collapse. We theoretically study a minimal many-particle model consisting …

We consider solitary wave excitations above the ground state of 𝐹=1 spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates (SOBECs). The low-energy properties of SOBECs in any of the three branches of the single-particle dispersion relation can be described by suitable scalar nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equations which we …

Congratulations Junheng! Even with large dissipation, March 12, 2024 will not be lost to time.
Way to go Mingshu! March 1, 2024 will live on in history.
