Quasiparticle engineering and entanglement propagation in a quantum many-body system
Open accessAbstract
The key to explaining and controlling a range of quantum phenomena is to study how information propagates around many-body systems. Quantum dynamics can be described by particle-like carriers of information that emerge in the collective behaviour of the underlying system, the so-called quasiparticles. These elementary excitations are predicted to distribute quantum information in a fashion determined by the system's interactions. Here we report quasiparticle dynamics observed in a quantum many-body system of trapped atomic ions. First, we observe the entanglement distributed by quasiparticles as they trace out light-cone-like wavefronts. Second, using the ability to tune the interaction range in our system, we observe information propagation in an experimental regime where the effective-light-cone picture does not apply. Our results will enable experimental studies of a range of quantum phenomena, including transport, thermalization, localization and entanglement growth, and represent a first step towards a new quantum-optic regime of engineered quasiparticles with tunable nonlinear interactions.

“Clearly, our approach is not restricted to optical lattices and can be applied to ultracold atoms and polar molecules, including scenarios governed by three-body interactions [43].”

In the citing paper
“It has been shown that the maximal speed of quantum evolution is given by the time averaged norm of the generator of the dynamics [51], which in the case of unitary dynamics and for orthogonal states reduces to the average energy E [48].”

In the citing paper
“Thus, the minimal time during which a quantum system can evolve from the initial to the final state, i.e., the QSL time τ QSL , is determined by τ QSL ≃ ℏ=2E [48,51].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
