Phase transitions and critical phenomena have been at the heart of many-body physics—and quantum simulations with ultracold atoms—from the beginning. While almost all phase transitions in cold atoms systems are continuous more

Alkaline earth atoms and optical tweezer arrays are naturally complementary technologies. The atoms provide convenient transitions for high fidelity optical cooling and imaging, well-controlled internal states with extremely high quality factors, and switchable interactions. more

Understanding and classifying out-of-equilibrium dynamics in a closed quantum many-body system have been outstanding problems in modern physics. In this talk, we will introduce our experimental platform of strongly ferromagnetic spin-1 condensate [1] and recent experimental results on the universal coarsening dynamics more

In this talk, I will introduce our recent work on sensing arbitrary-frequency vector signals by using the sensor qubit as a quantum frequency mixer. more

Gauge fields coupled to dynamical matter are a ubiquitous framework in many disciplines of physics, ranging from particle to condensed matter physics, but remain challenging to implement robustly in large-scale quantum simulators. more

While it is well known that strong spin orbit couplings and particular point groupe symmetries give rise to topologically non-trivial states of matter, a new approach is to investigate the possibility to find topological states of matter in strongly correlated compounds. more

Quantum error correction is a crucial step to building useful quantum computers, needed to maintain precision in deep computations in spite of having faulty components - as long as the error rate is below a threshold value. The most promising quantum error correction scheme to date more
