We investigate the non-equilibrium relaxation dynamics of a one dimensional system of interacting spinless fermions near the XXZ integrable point. We observe two qualitatively different regimes: close to integrability and for low energies…
A thermodynamic system of non-interacting quantum particles changes its statistical distribution formulas if there is a universal limitation for the size of energetic quantum leaps (magnitude of quantum leaps smaller than Planck energy). By…
We study the quantum dynamics of filling an empty lattice of size $L$, by connecting it locally with an equilibrium thermal bath that injects non-interacting bosons or fermions. We adopt four different approaches, namely (i) direct exact…
Temporal coherence is a fundamental property of macroscopic quantum systems, such as lasers in optics and Bose-Einstein condensates in atomic gases and it is a crucial issue for interferometry applications with light or matter waves.…
Many experimentally relevant systems are quasi-one-dimensional, consisting of nearly decoupled chains. In these systems, there is a natural separation of scales between the strong intra-chain interactions and the weak interchain coupling.…
In this work we study the time evolution of soft core bosons on a one-dimensional lattice, where the particles are initially quenched into a atomic density wave. At time $t=0$ the particles are released from the quench and can evolve under…

We investigate early-time equilibration rates of observables in closed many-body quantum systems and compare them to those of two correlation functions, first introduced by Kubo and Srednicki. We explore whether these different rates…
When a two-dimensional system undergoes a rapid quench from a disordered to an ordered phase, it does not order instantly but instead relaxes towards equilibrium over time. During this relaxation, the dynamical scaling hypothesis predicts…

Quantum gas microscopes have expanded the capabilities of quantum simulation of Hubbard models by enabling the study of spatial spin and density correlations in square lattices. However, quantum gas microscopes have not been realized for…
We study the dynamics of entanglement in spin gases. A spin gas consists of a (large) number of interacting particles whose random motion is described classically while their internal degrees of freedom are described quantum-mechanically.…

The formation of an equilibrium quantum state from an uncorrelated thermal one through the dynamical crossing of a phase transition is a central question of non-equilibrium many-body physics. During such crossing, the system breaks its…
