The interaction of light and matter at the single-photon level is of central importance in various fields of physics, including, eg, condensed matter physics, astronomy, quantum …
Interactions govern the flow of information and the formation of correlations between constituents of many-body quantum systems, dictating phases of matter found in nature and …
We report direct observations of photon-mediated spin-exchange interactions in an atomic ensemble. Interactions extending over a distance of 500 μ m are generated within a cloud of …
The Dicke model is a paradigm of collective behavior in quantum mechanics describing an ensemble of N two-level atoms interacting with a single mode of the electromagnetic field …
We investigate the collective decay dynamics of atoms with a generic multilevel structure (angular momenta F↔ F′) coupled to two light modes of different polarization inside a …

Quantum phase transitions universally exist in the ground and excited states of quantum many-body systems, and they have a close relationship with the nonequilibrium dynamical …
A periodically driven open three-level Dicke model is realized by resonantly shaking the pump field in an atom-cavity system. As an unambiguous signature, we demonstrate the …
Using an ensemble of atoms in an optical cavity, we engineer a family of nonlocal Heisenberg Hamiltonians with continuously tunable anisotropy of the spin-spin couplings …
We consider theoretically a driven-dissipative quantum many-body system consisting of an atomic ensemble in a single-mode optical cavity as described by the open Tavis-Cummings …
