Far-from-equilibrium Quantum Dynamics

  • Ultracold quantum gases far from equilibrium
  • Universal dynamics and quantum turbulence
  • Artificial neural networks for quantum physics
  • High correlations and entanglement

Within the Synthetic Quantum Systems group we are developing experimental and theoretical methods for quantum many-body systems in and out of equilibrium. We focus, in particular, on ultracold atomic quantum gases, universal dynamics, long-time evolution and thermalisation, quantum field simulation, strong correlations and entanglement, and gravitational physics in the laboratory.

NEWS

Welcome in Winter 2026!

Theodora Lazarevic is joining BEC-K team for a bachelors project on numerical simulations on the 2D bose gas.

 

Sebastian Hurth is joining ATTA for his bachelor thesis, where he works on improvements on the laser spectroscopy system.

 

Lea Neumann is joining on the theory team for her master thesis. She will focus on numerical simulations on a quasi 1D spin-1 bose gas.

 

Gabriele Guarino is joining the Rb-BEC team for his masterproject working on the experimental apparatus.

 

Lena will start soon with her master thesis in our group!

Retreat

We have sucessfully managed to return from our retreat in the Allgäu Alps! It was an enriching and inspiring experience, filled with fascinating discussions on physics and insightful exchanges of ideas between the different subgoups.
