Collectivity in ensembles of atoms gives rise to effects like super- and subradiance. While superradiance is well studied and experimentally accessible, subradiance remains elusive since it is difficult to track experimentally as well as…
When light and matter are weakly coupled, they can be described as two distinctive systems exchanging quanta of energy. By contrast, for very large coupling strength, the systems hybridize and form compounds that cannot be described in…
We study a system of a single qubit (or a few qubits) interacting with a soft-mode bosonic field. Considering an extended version of the Rabi model with both parity-conserving and parity-violating interactions, we disclose a complex…

Qubit-qubit interactions can significantly boost quantum coherence times for Bell states. The coherence-time-enhancements are however not monotonic and there exists a phase where further increasing the interaction is unhelpful. A resonator…
