Phase coherence in out-of-equilibrium supersolid states of ultracold dipolar atoms

Now in Nature Physics!

Supersolids are fluid and solid at the same time. In jointly collaboration work, together with Thierry Giamarchi, theoretical physicist from the University of Geneva, we have for the first time investigated what happens when such a state is brought out of balance.

Robustness of gauge-invariant dynamics against defects in ultra cold atom gauge theories

Now in Physical Review Research!

Bing Yang collaborate with Jad C. Halimeh, Robert Ott, Ian P. McCulloch and Philipp Hauke in theoretically studying the robustness of an ultracold-atom quantum simulator against defects. This work is now published on Physical Review Research and is highlighted as the “editor’s suggestion”.

Supersolid Quantum Matter

Physics: Highlights of the Year

The Physics magazine of the American Physical Society (APS) has named the discovery of supersolidity in ultracold quantum gases as one of the top ten highlights of 2019. The research group led by Francesca Ferlaino has for the first time obtained evidence of supersolidity in erbium and dysprosium gases. Similar experiments were conducted in Pisa and Stuttgart.
