Robustness of many-body localization in the presence of dissipation (2016)
Journal Article
Levi, E., Heyl, M., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Robustness of many-body localization in the presence of dissipation. Physical Review Letters, 116, Article 237203. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.237203

Many-body localization (MBL) has emerged as a novel paradigm for robust ergodicity breaking in closed quantum many-body systems. However, it is not yet clear to which extent MBL survives in the presence of dissipative processes induced by the couplin...

Non-equilibrium dynamics of non-linear Jaynes-Cummings model in cavity arrays (2016)
Journal Article
Minář, J., Söyler, Ş. G., & Lesanovsky, I. (2016). Non-equilibrium dynamics of non-linear Jaynes-Cummings model in cavity arrays. New Journal of Physics, 18(5), 1-16. https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/18/5/053035

We analyze in detail an open cavity array using mean-field description, where each cavity field is coupled to a number of three-level atoms. Such system is highly tunable and can be described by a Jaynes-Cummings like Hamiltonian with additional non-...

Towards rotation sensing with a single atomic clock (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fernholz, T., Stevenson, R., Hush, M. R., Lesanovsky, I., Bishop, T., Gentile, F., Jammi, S., Pyragius, T., Bason, M. G., Mas, H., Pandey, S., Vasilakis, G., Poulios, K., & von Klitzing, W. Towards rotation sensing with a single atomic clock. Presented at SPIE Photonics Europe, Brussels, Belgium

We discuss a scheme to implement a gyroscopic atom sensor with magnetically trapped ultra-cold atoms. Unlike standard light or matter wave Sagnac interferometers no free wave propagation is used. Interferometer operation is controlled only with stati... Read More about Towards rotation sensing with a single atomic clock.

Experimental observation of controllable kinetic constraints in a cold atomic gas (2016)
Journal Article
Valado, M., Simonelli, C., Hoogerland, M., Lesanovsky, I., Garrahan, J. P., Arimondo, E., Ciampini, D., & Morsch, O. (2016). Experimental observation of controllable kinetic constraints in a cold atomic gas. Physical Review A, 93(4), Article 040701. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.93.040701

Many-body systems relaxing to equilibrium can exhibit complex dynamics even if their steady state is trivial. In situations where relaxation requires highly constrained local particle rearrangements, such as in glassy systems, this dynamics can be di...

Solid effect DNP polarization dynamics in a system of many spins (2016)
Journal Article
Wiśniewski, D., Karabanov, A., Lesanovsky, I., & Köckenberger, W. (2016). Solid effect DNP polarization dynamics in a system of many spins. Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 264, 30-38. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jmr.2016.01.016

We discuss the polarization dynamics during solid effect dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) in a central spin model that consists of an electron surrounded by many nuclei. To this end we use a recently developed formalism and validate first its perfo... Read More about Solid effect DNP polarization dynamics in a system of many spins.

Dynamical phase transitions as a resource for quantum enhanced metrology (2016)
Journal Article
Macieszczak, K., Guţă, M., Lesanovsky, I., & Garrahan, J. P. (2016). Dynamical phase transitions as a resource for quantum enhanced metrology. Physical Review A, 93(2), Article 022103. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.93.022103

We consider the general problem of estimating an unknown control parameter of an open quantum system. We establish a direct relation between the evolution of both system and environment and the precision with which the parameter can be estimated. We...
