Controlling interactions is the key element for the quantum engineering of many-body
systems. Using time-periodic driving, a naturally given many-body Hamiltonian of a closed …

Understanding the dynamics of strongly interacting disordered quantum systems is one of
the most challenging problems in modern science, due to features such as the breakdown of …

Magnetic resonance imaging is a three-dimensional imaging technique, where a gradient of
the magnetic field is used to interrogate spin resonances with spatial resolution. The …

Understanding how closed quantum systems dynamically approach thermal equilibrium
presents a major unresolved problem in statistical physics. Generically, it is expected that …

Abstract The Weakest Bound Electron Potential Model (WBEPM) is an effective emerging
method for atomic structure calculations that gives results compatible with the experimental …

We experimentally investigate the nonlinear transmission spectrum of coherent light fields
propagating through a Rydberg EIT medium with strong atomic interactions. In contrast to …

We experimentally investigate trap-loss spectra of the cesium 6S 1/2 (F= 4)→ 71P 3/2
Rydberg transition by combining the cesium atomic magneto-optical trap with the narrow …

In this thesis, we present the realization of an isolated Heisenberg XXZ spin 1/2 system with
an off-diagonal disorder in the coupling constants using cold atoms in highly excited …

Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency (Rydberg EIT) enables extremely strong
optical nonlinearities, opening the possibility for photon-photon interactions and exotic …
