Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade new experimental tools and theoretical concepts are providing new insights into collective nonequilibrium behaviour of quantum systems. On the solid state front, high intensity short-timepulses and fast (femtosecond) probes allow solids to be put into highly excited states and probed before relaxation and dissipation occur. Experimental developments are matched by progress in theoretical techniques ranging from exact solutions of strongly interacting nonequilibrium models to newapproaches to nonequilibrium numerics. The summer school held at the Les Houches School of Physics as its XCIX session was designed to summarise this progress, lay out the open questions and define directions for future work. This books collects the lecture notes of the main courses given in this summer school.

This book was released on 2016-07-07 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade new experimental tools and theoretical concepts are providing new insights into collective nonequilibrium behavior of quantum systems. The exquisite control provided by laser trapping and cooling techniques allows us to observe the behavior of condensed bose and degenerate Fermi gases under nonequilibrium drive or after `quenches' in which a Hamiltonian parameter is suddenly or slowly changed. On the solid state front, high intensity short-time pulses and fast (femtosecond) probes allow solids to be put into highly excited states and probed before relaxation and dissipation occur. Experimental developments are matched by progress in theoretical techniques ranging from exact solutions of strongly interacting nonequilibrium models to new approaches to nonequilibrium numerics.

Book Non equilibrium Strongly Interacting Quantum Many body Systems

Download or read book Non equilibrium Strongly Interacting Quantum Many body Systems written by Oscar Leonardo Acevedo Pabón and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis dissertation concerns the quantum dynamics of strongly interacting many-body systems under several non-equilibrium scenarios. Mimicking many real life settings, and specially some current major experiments, during most of this work we will deal with symmetrical interactions among the components, which will generate collective dynamics with high degree of correlation. The focus all throughout this work has been on the posssibility of accurately control the quantum properties of the system, even at the microscopic level, by cleverly choosing macroscopic manipulation protocols. Our main results can be summarized as follows. First, we thoroughly investigate the irreversible defect formation when the Dicke model, a paradigmatic light-matter system, is made to cross its quantum phase transition (QPT). Furthermore, we have been able to explain this dynamical QPT for totally connected lattices, which had remained unresolved by well-known theories like the Kibble-Zurek mechanism. This was done by means of a broad encompassing critical function theory. Also, by going beyond semi-adiabatic evolutions, we have discovered that the dynamical QPT of the Dicke model has an intermediate regime where non-equilibrium process provide a huge enhancing of quantum properties, far beyond the capabilities of equilibrium, quasi-equilibrium, or sudden quench schemes. Finally, we provided theoretical evidence and insights for the possibilities of quantum magnetism interactions in current high precision alkaline earth atom lattice clocks.

Book Equilibrium and Non equilibrium Statistical Mechanics

Download or read book Equilibrium and Non equilibrium Statistical Mechanics written by Carolyn M. Van Vliet and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008 with total page 987 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book encompasses our current understanding of the ensemble approach to many-body physics, phase transitions and other thermal phenomena, as well as the quantum foundations of linear response theory, kinetic equations and stochastic processes. It is destined to be a standard text for graduate students, but it will also serve the specialist-researcher in this fascinating field; some more elementary topics have been included in order to make the book self-contained.The historical methods of J Willard Gibbs and Ludwig Boltzmann, applied to the quantum description rather than phase space, are featured. The tools for computations in the microcanonical, canonical and grand-canonical ensembles are carefully developed and then applied to a variety of classical and standard quantum situations. After the language of second quantization has been introduced, strongly interacting systems, such as quantum liquids, superfluids and superconductivity, are treated in detail. For the connoisseur, there is a section on diagrammatic methods and applications.In the second part dealing with non-equilibrium processes, the emphasis is on the quantum foundations of Markovian behaviour and irreversibility via the Pauli-Van Hove master equation. Justifiable linear response expressions and the quantum-Boltzmann approach are discussed and applied to various condensed matter problems. From this basis the Onsager-Casimir relations are derived, together with the mesoscopic master equation, the Langevin equation and the Fokker-Planck truncation procedure. Brownian motion and modern stochastic problems such as fluctuations in optical signals and radiation fields briefly make the round.

Book On Non equilibrium Dynamics in Low dimensional Strongly Correlated Quantum Systems

Download or read book On Non equilibrium Dynamics in Low dimensional Strongly Correlated Quantum Systems written by and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, we study the non-equilibrium dynamics of low-dimensional strongly correlated quantum systems, which in our case are generated by sudden and time-dependent quantum quenches. Such non-equilibrium dynamics are a particularly difficult problem, because the time evolution of the initial many-body quantum state, which is governed by the post-quench Hamiltonian, is highly non-trivial. On top of that, applying an operator to this many-body quantum state in order to calculate its expectation values, typically creates an intricate set of excitations. Throughout the thesis, we furthermore contrast the results that we have obtained using exact numerical methods for two microscopic models, namely the Heisenberg and Fermi-Hubbard chains, with results derived from the Luttinger liquid theory, which, in equilibrium, describes the universal behavior of the two models.In the second part of the thesis, we reduce the dimensionality even further and employ complementary numerical and analytical tools to examine the unusual non-equilibrium behavior of a ring-shaped quantum impurity hosting interacting spin-less fermions.

Book NON EQUILIBRIUM DYNAMICS OF MANY BODY QUANTUM SYSTEMS

Download or read book NON EQUILIBRIUM DYNAMICS OF MANY BODY QUANTUM SYSTEMS written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid progress in nanotechnology and naofabrication techniques has ushered in a new era of quantum transport experiments. This has in turn heightened the interest in theoretical understanding of nonequilibrium dynamics of strongly correlated quantum systems. This project has advanced the frontiers of understanding in this area along several fronts. For example, we showed that under certain conditions, quantum impurities out of equilibrium can be reformulated in terms of an effective equilibrium theory; this makes it possible to use the gamut of tools available for quantum systems in equilibrium. On a different front, we demonstrated that the elastic power of a transmitted microwave photon in circuit QED systems can exhibit a many-body Kondo resonance. We also showed that under many circumstances, bipartite fluctuations of particle number provide an effective tool for studying many-body physics--particularly the entanglement properties of a many-body system. This implies that it should be possible to measure many-body entanglement in relatively simple and tractable quantum systems. In addition, we studied charge relaxation in quantum RC circuits with a large number of conducting channels, and elucidated its relation to Kondo models in various regimes. We also extended our earlier work on the dynamics of driven and dissipative quantum spin-boson impurity systems, deriving a new formalism that makes it possible to compute the full spin density matrix and spin-spin correlation functions beyond the weak coupling limit. Finally, we provided a comprehensive analysis of the nonequilibrium transport near a quantum phase transition in the case of a spinless dissipative resonant-level model. This project supported the research of two Ph. D. students and two postdoctoral researchers, whose training will allow them to further advance the field in coming years.

Book Nonequilibrium Dynamics of Collective Excitations in Quantum Materials

Download or read book Nonequilibrium Dynamics of Collective Excitations in Quantum Materials written by Edoardo Baldini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the dynamics of fundamental collective excitations in quantum materials, focusing on the use of state-of-the-art ultrafast broadband optical spectroscopy. Collective behaviour in solids lies at the origin of several cooperative phenomena that can lead to profound transformations, instabilities and phase transitions. Revealing the dynamics of collective excitations is a topic of pivotal importance in contemporary condensed matter physics, as it provides information on the strength and spatial distribution of interactions and correlation. The experimental framework explored in this book relies on setting a material out-of-equilibrium by an ultrashort laser pulse and monitoring the photo-induced changes in its optical properties over a broad spectral region in the visible or deep-ultraviolet. Collective excitations (e.g. plasmons, excitons, phonons...) emerge either in the frequency domain as spectral features across the probed range, or in the time domain as coherent modes triggered by the pump pulse. Mapping the temporal evolution of these collective excitations provides access to the hierarchy of low-energy phenomena occurring in the solid during its path towards thermodynamic equilibrium. This methodology is used to investigate a number of strongly interacting and correlated materials with an increasing degree of internal complexity beyond conventional band theory.
