[qmeets talk] The importance of being dipolar: quantum simulations with resonant Rydberg atoms
Abstract: Quantum simulation of lattice spin models can provide new fundamental insights into quantum magnetism. State-of-the-art quantum simulators can probe how interacting Hamiltonians stabilize highly correlated states at low energy, and how they can drive the spreading of correlations away from equilibrium. In this context, Rydberg atoms with resonant interactions play a special role, given the full flexibility of the lattice geometry they can realize, as well as the dipolar nature of the spin-spin interactions.
