Download or read book Correlations in Low Dimensional Quantum Gases written by Guillaume Lang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-29 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book addresses several aspects of thermodynamics and correlations in the strongly-interacting regime of one-dimensional bosons, a topic at the forefront of current theoretical and experimental studies. Strongly correlated systems of one-dimensional bosons have a long history of theoretical study. Their experimental realisation in ultracold atom experiments is the subject of current research, which took off in the early 2000s. Yet these experiments raise new theoretical questions, just begging to be answered. Correlation functions are readily available for experimental measurements. In this book, they are tackled by means of sophisticated theoretical methods developed in condensed matter physics and mathematical physics, such as bosonization, the Bethe Ansatz and conformal field theory. Readers are introduced to these techniques, which are subsequently used to investigate many-body static and dynamical correlation functions.
Download or read book Density Fluctuations in Quasi One Dimensional Ultracold Bosonic Gases written by Julien Armijo and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-11 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The repulsive 1D Bose gas is an emblematic model of many-body quantum physics whose solutions are known since the 60's. However it is only recently that experiments with ultracold atoms in tight waveguides allowed to test the theory, also raising new puzzles. This manuscript presents the implementation of a new experimental set-up, based on microfabricated devices called "atom chips," and the explorations that followed. The imaging was optimized to allow precise statistical studies of the in-situ atomic profiles. Density fluctuations up to their third moment are used as a powerful probe for the thermodynamics of 1D clouds. In particular, the quasicondensation transition is shown to be ruled by interactions and not by degeneracy, a particularity of 1D physics. Reaching record low temperatures, subpoissonian fluctuations are observed, providing evidence for the regime of dominant quantum fluctuations. Progress towards the regime of strong interactions is also described. The text includes a comprehensive synthesis on fluctuations in low dimensional superfluids and on the techniques developed to study density fluctuations. It should be useful for anyone interested in quantum gases

Download or read book Probing Non equilibrium Dynamics in Two dimensional Quantum Gases written by Cheng-An Chen and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis explores the physics of non-equilibrium quantum dynamics in homogeneous two-dimensional (2D) quantum gases. Ultracold quantum gases driven out of equilibrium have been prominent platforms for studying quantum many-body physics. However, probing non-equilibrium dynamics in conventionally trapped, inhomogeneous atomic quantum gases has been a challenging task because coexisting mass transport and spreading of quantum correlations often complicate experimental analyses. In this work, the author solves this technical hurdle by producing ultracold cesium atoms in a quasi-2D optical box potential. The exquisite optical trap allows one to remove density inhomogeneity in a degenerate quantum gas and control its dimensionality. The author also details the development of a high-resolution, in situ imaging technique to monitor the evolution of collective excitations and quantum transport down to atomic shot-noise, and at the length scale of elementary collective excitations. Meanwhile, tunable Feshbach resonances in ultracold cesium atoms permit precise and dynamical control of interactions with high temporal and even spatial resolutions. By employing these state-of-the-art techniques, the author performed interaction quenches to control the generation and evolution of quasiparticles in quantum gases, presenting the first direct measurement of quantum entanglement between interaction quench generated quasiparticle pairs in an atomic superfluid. Quenching to attractive interactions, this work shows stimulated emission of quasiparticles, leading to amplified density waves and fragmentation, forming 2D matter-wave Townes solitons that were previously considered impossible to form in equilibrium due to their instability. This thesis unveils a set of scale-invariant and universal quench dynamics and provides unprecedented tools to explore quantum entanglement transport in a homogenous quantum gas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum phenomena of many-particle systems are fascinating in their complexity and are consequently not fully understood and largely untapped in terms of practical applications. Ultracold gases provide a unique platform to build up model systems of quantum many-body physics with highly controlled microscopic constituents. In this way, many-body quantum phenomena can be investigated with an unprecedented level of precision, and control and models that cannot be solved with present day computers may be studied using ultracold gases as a quantum simulator.This book addresses the need for a comprehensive description of the most important advanced experimental methods and techniques that have been developed along with the theoretical framework in a clear and applicable format. The focus is on methods that are especially crucial in probing and understanding the many-body nature of the quantum phenomena in ultracold gases and most topics are covered both from a theoretical and experimental viewpoint, with interrelated chapters written by experts from both sides of research.Graduate students and post-doctoral researches working on ultracold gases will benefit from this book, as well as researchers from other fields who wish to gain an overview of the recent fascinating developments in this very dynamically evolving field. Sufficient level of both detailed high level research and a pedagogical approach is maintained throughout the book so as to be of value to those entering the field as well as advanced researchers. Furthermore, both experimentalists and theorists will benefit from the book; close collaboration between the two are continuously driving the field to a very high level and will be strengthened to continue the important progress yet to be made in the field.

Download or read book One Dimensional Quantum Gases written by John Goold and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low dimensional quantum gases have rapidly evolved from a being a solely theoretical concept towards being experimentally accessible systems in the laboratories. Since restricted geometry are known to introduce strong correlations, these systems show very involved and interesting physics while still being largely analytically treatable. In this thesis, one dimensional two-body and many-body were studied. The two particle models serve as ideal test beds for ideas in entanglement theory. Entanglement is not only one of the defining characteristics of quantum mechanics but it is also at the heart of many current quantum information processing protocols. The analytic accessibility of the realistic dimer models makes them ideal systems for testing such ideas. I describe how different types of entanglement may arise in such models and outline detection and quantification techniques. The ground state properties and correlation functions of a Tonks-Girardeau gas of a strongly interacting boson gas confined in a potential split by a point-like barrier are studied in detail. This model can be used to approximate a realistic double well situation where the height of the barrier is related to the area of a physical potential. Alternatively, a point like potential can be a good approximation to describe a strongly localised impurity such as an ionic impurity inside a gas of neutral atoms.
