This is a review of state-of-the-art theory and experiment of the motion of cold and ultracold
atoms coupled to the radiation field within a high-finesse optical resonator in the dispersive …

Rydberg atoms with principal quantum number n⪢ 1 have exaggerated atomic properties
including dipole-dipole interactions that scale as n 4 and radiative lifetimes that scale as n 3 …

The counter-intuitive aspects of quantum physics have been for long illustrated by thought
experiments, from Einstein's photon box to Schrödinger's cat. These experiments have now …

Entanglement is the essential feature of quantum mechanics. Notably, observers of two or
more entangled particles will find correlations in their measurement results that cannot be …

Establishing a reliable method to form scalable neutral-atom platforms is an essential
cornerstone for quantum computation, quantum simulation and quantum many-body …

Fidelity serves as a benchmark for the reliability in quantum information processes, and has
recently attracted much interest as a measure of the susceptibility of dynamics to …

The main objective of quantum simulation is an in-depth understanding of many-body
physics, which is important for fundamental issues (quantum phase transitions, transport,…) …

We report the direct measurement of the van der Waals interaction between two isolated,
single Rydberg atoms separated by a controlled distance of a few micrometers. Working in a …

We realize fast transport of ions in a segmented microstructured Paul trap. The ion is
shuttled over a distance of more than 10 4 times its ground state wave function size during …

We use the dynamical invariants associated with the Hamiltonian of an atom in a one
dimensional moving trap to inverse engineer the trap motion and perform fast atomic …
