Heavy-ion collisions at BNL's Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and CERN's Large Hadron
Collider provide strong evidence for the formation of a quark-gluon plasma, with …

Over the past decade, there has been remarkable progress in our understanding of
equilibration, thermalization and prethermalization, due in large part to experimental …

Simple models of interacting spins have an important role in physics. They capture the
properties of many magnetic materials, but also extend to other systems, such as bosons …

Identifying universal properties of nonequilibrium quantum states is a major challenge in
modern physics. A fascinating prediction is that classical hydrodynamics emerges …

We overview the concept of dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) in isolated quantum
systems quenched out of equilibrium. We focus on non-equilibrium transitions characterized …

Interactions between atoms and light in optical cavities provide a means of investigating
collective (many-body) quantum physics in controlled environments. Such ensembles of …

Abstract This White Paper presents an overview of the current status and future perspective
of QCD research, based on the community inputs and scientific conclusions from the 2022 …

Understanding strongly correlated phases of matter, such as the quark–gluon plasma and
neutron stars, and in particular the dynamics of such systems, for example, following a …

Synchronization is a phenomenon where interacting particles lock their motion and display
non-trivial dynamics. Despite intense efforts studying synchronization in systems without …

Dynamical quantum phase transitions are closely related to equilibrium quantum phase
transitions for ground states. Here, we report an experimental observation of a dynamical …
