Mesoscopic cold atom systems in and out of equilibrium
Virtual International Workshop
7 - 11 September 2020
The workshop will discuss progress and future directions of mesoscopic cold atom and related systems, in and out of equilibrium. Topics of interest include experimentally accessible observables, higher-order correlations, diffusion dynamics, developing and benchmarking effective low-energy theories, thermalization, and quantum engineering protocols.
Topics include
- How can we observe correlations between constituents such as atoms, molecules, quasi-particles or spins of mesoscopic systems?
- Can we tune a mesoscopic system from obeying the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis to violating it?
- How can we unambiguously observe the transition between incoherent and coherent quantum diffusion?
- What are the limits of state relaxation and engineering in non-adiabatic Hamiltonians?
- How can we experimentally and theoretically benchmark effective, nonequilibrium theories?
