Ion Coulomb crystals (ICC), formed by atomic ions at low temperatures in radiofrequency and Penning ion traps, are structures that have remarkable properties and many applications. Images of Coulomb crystals are striking and reveal the…

The computational difficulty of solving fully quantum many-body spin problems is a significant obstacle to understanding the behavior of strongly correlated quantum matter. Experimental ion-trap quantum simulation is a promising approach…

We present a theoretical model for realizing squeezed lasing in a trapped-ion system without relying on engineered baths or tailored dissipative reservoirs. Our approach leverages the intrinsic ion-phonon interactions, where two trapped…

For several decades, ions have been trapped by radio frequency (RF) and neutral particles by optical fields. We implement the experimental proof-of-principle for trapping an ion in an optical dipole trap. While loading, initialization and…

We present a cryogenic ion trapping system designed for large scale quantum simulation of spin models. Our apparatus is based on a segmented-blade ion trap enclosed in a 4 K cryostat, which enables us to routinely trap over 100…

We discuss the dynamics of a spin coupled to a damped harmonic oscillator. This system can be mapped to a spin-boson model with a structured bath, i.e. the spectral function of the bath has a resonance peak. We diagonalize the model by…

We show that ultracold atoms confined in a quasi-1d trap can be used to study the dissipative spin-boson model with {\it tunable} tunneling splitting and strength of dissipation. It is shown that with realistic parameters this system allows…

We study the effects of the spin orbit interaction (SOI) of light in an optical trap and show that the propagation of the tightly focused trapping beam in a stratified medium can lead to significantly enhanced SOI. For a plane polarized…

I predict the existence of internal spatial currents in a {\it single} macroscopic quantum system, namely in trapped dilute-gas at sufficiently low temperatures, when a Bose-Einstein condensation occurs. The spatial profiles of the…

Cooling the motion of trapped ions to near the quantum ground state is crucial for many applications in quantum information processing and quantum metrology. However, certain motional modes of trapped-ion crystals can be difficult to cool…

A constructive theoretical platform for the description of quantum space-time crystals uncovers for $N$ interacting and ring-confined rotating particles the existence of low-lying states with proper space-time crystal behavior. The…

Ion traps are a versatile tool to study nonequilibrium statistical physics, due to the tunability of dissipation and nonlinearity. We propose an experiment with a chain of trapped ions, where dissipation is provided by laser heating and…

We investigate the interaction of a laser-cooled trapped ion (Ba$^+$ or Rb$^+$) with an optically confined $^{87}$Rb Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). The system features interesting dynamics of the ion and the atom cloud as determined by…

We investigate a quasi-one dimensional system of trapped cold bosonic atoms in an optical lattice by using the density matrix renormalization group to study the Bose-Hubbard model at T=0 for experimentally realistic numbers of lattice…

Boson sampling solves a classically intractable problem by sampling from a probability distribution given by matrix permanents. We propose a scalable implementation of Boson sampling using local transverse phonon modes of trapped ions to…

The behavior of H-like ions embedded in astrophysical plasmas in the form of \emph{dense, strongly and weakly coupled} plasmas are investigated. In these, the increase and decrease in temperature is impacted with a change in confinement…

There is a growing interest in high-precision spectroscopy and frequency metrology for fundamental studies using sympathetically cooled highly charged ions (HCIs) embedded in Coulomb crystals of laser-cooled ions. In order to understand how…

The control of internal and motional quantum degrees of freedom of laser cooled trapped ions has been subject to intense theoretical and experimental research for about three decades. In the realm of quantum information science the ability…

We analyze the spin dynamics of an individual magnetic atom (Mn) inserted in a II-VI semiconductor quantum dot under resonant optical excitation. In addition to standard optical pumping expected for a resonant excitation, we show that for…

We introduce quantum sensing protocol for detection spatially varying fields by using two coupled harmonic oscillators as a quantum probe. We discuss a physical implementation of the sensing technique with two trapped ions coupled via…
