Journal Article
Shao, X.-Q., Su, S.-L., Li, L., Nath, R., Wu, J.-H., & Li, W. (2024). Rydberg superatoms: An artificial quantum system for quantum information processing and quantum optics. Applied Physics Reviews, 11(3), https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0211071

Dense atom ensembles with Rydberg excitations display intriguing collective effects mediated by their strong, long-range dipole–dipole interactions. These collective effects, often modeled using Rydberg superatoms, have gained significant attention a...

Swift, M. R., & Smith, M. I. (2024). Torque about electrostatically charged spheres makes them more attractive. Soft Matter, 20(35), 7038-7043. https://doi.org/10.1039/d4sm00566j

The strength of interparticle interactions in a granular system controls how a collection of insulating particles flow, cohere and fragment. Forces due to electrostatic charging, particularly in free-fall or low gravity environments, can dominate the...
