Quench Dynamics of an Optical Lattice - Local and Global Aspects

Explore the quench dynamics of optical lattices in this 39-minute conference talk by Natan Andrei, recorded as part of the 2021 Non-Equilibrium Universality in Many-Body Physics KITP Conference. Delve into both local and global aspects of this phenomenon, which sits at the intersection of statistical physics, AMO, condensed matter, and high-energy physics. Gain insights into novel phases of matter far from equilibrium and their associated universality classes that emerge beyond traditional equilibrium paradigms. Examine topics such as short-time universality, entanglement dynamics, and mappings between classical and quantum non-equilibrium systems. Discover how this research contributes to the broader goal of identifying aspects of high-energy physics that can inform non-equilibrium condensed and AMO systems, and vice versa, with potential implications for future experiments aimed at deepening our understanding of far-from-equilibrium universality.
