Optical cavity QED provides a platform with which to explore quantum many-body physics in
driven-dissipative systems. Single-mode cavities provide strong, infinite-range photon …

High-resolution addressing of individual ultracold atoms, trapped ions or solid state emitters
allows for exquisite control in quantum optics experiments. This becomes possible through …

Previous realizations of synthetic gauge fields for ultracold atoms do not allow the spatial
profile of the field to evolve freely. We propose a scheme which overcomes this restriction by …

Quantized sound waves—phonons—govern the elastic response of crystalline materials,
and also play an integral part in determining their thermodynamic properties and electrical …

We experimentally show that resonance spectra of optical microcavities have a fine structure
that resembles the one observed in atoms. We can identify the polarization-resolved modes …

Optical cavities can support many transverse and longitudinal modes. A paraxial scalar
theory predicts that the resonance frequencies of these modes cluster in different orders. A …

We show that ultracold fermions in an artificial magnetic field open up a new window to the
physics of the spinful fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect. We numerically study the lowest …

The nonequilibrium quantum dynamics of few boson ensembles which experience a
spatially modulated interaction strength and are confined in finite optical lattices is …

Optical cavities in the near-concentric regime have near-degenerate transverse modes; the
tight focusing transverse modes in this regime enable strong coupling with atoms. These …

The field of quantum cavity optomechanics, which focuses on the mutual interaction
between an optical cavity field and the motion of a mechanical object via radiation pressure …
