Topological Pumping into Strongly Correlated Prethermal States - Benjamin Lev

Explore topological pumping into strongly correlated prethermal states in this 29-minute conference talk from the Transport and Efficient Energy Conversion in Quantum Systems Conference at KITP. Delve into the experimental system of Dysprosium in a 2D optical lattice, examining the tuning of contact interactions and the unexpected collapse in integrable systems. Investigate the similarities between strongly correlated prethermal states and quantum scars. Gain insights into future research directions, including the development of an optical lattice with sound. This presentation offers a comprehensive look at recent advances in quantum transport and energy conversion, bridging concepts from statistical physics, condensed matter, and atomic physics.

Intro
Topological pumping into strongly correlated prethermal states
Topological pumping in space
Experimental system: Dysprosium in a 2D optical lattice
Tuning the contact interactions
Why the collapse? Integrable systems shouldn't collapse
STG gas with DDI vs 8
These strongly correlated prethermal states are scar-like
Summary & future directions
An optical lattice with sound!
