Quantum integrable models display a rich variety of non-thermal excited states with unusual properties. The most common way to probe them is by performing a quantum quench, i.e., by letting a many-body initial state unitarily evolve with an…

When a quantum many-body system undergoes a quench, the time-averaged density-matrix $\rho$ governs the time-averaged expectation value of any observable. It is therefore the key object to look at when comparing results with equilibrium…
