Less is known, however, about their finite-temperature properties, particularly relevant for supersolids formed by cooling through direct evaporation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In this new experimental work, we explore this realm by characterizing the evaporative formation and subsequent decay of a dipolar supersolid by combining high-resolution in-trap imaging with time-of-flight observables.\u00a0\u00a0As our atomic system cools towards quantum degeneracy, it first undergoes a transition from thermal gas to a crystalline state with the appearance of periodic density modulation.\u00a0 This is followed by a transition to a supersolid state with the emergence of long-range phase coherence.\u00a0Further, we explore the role of temperature in the development of the modulated state.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div class=\"c-message_actions__container c-message__actions\" role=\"group\">\n<div class=\"c-message_actions__group\" role=\"group\" aria-label=\"Message shortcuts\" data-qa=\"message-actions\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now in PRL!<br \/>\nThe supersolid phase transition at finite temperature is poorly understood since tools for an adequate theoretical simulation are still lacking.<br \/>\nWe have characterised the evaporative formation of a dipolar supersolid from a thermal gas using in-situ imaging.
