Lifting the veil of topological censorship
Schematic picture of the experimental setup showing a Chern insulator (purple) with attached electrodes (gold) and a SQUID magnetometer (shown as a loop on top of the insulator), which allows…
Team studies the emergence of fluctuating hydrodynamics in chaotic quantum systems
Fluorescence images of a quantum many-body system consisting of cesium atoms in an optical lattice in an initial ordered configuration (left) and a time-evolved random configuration. By studying the growth…
