• Abstract: Quantum many-body scars, long-lived excited states of correlated quantum chaotic systems that evade thermalization, are of great fundamental and technological interest. We create novel scar states in a bosonic 1D quantum gas of dysprosium by stabilizing a super-Tonks-Girardeau gas against collapse and thermalization with repulsive long-range dipolar interactions. Stiffness and energy density measurements show that the system is dynamically stable regardless of contact interaction strength. This enables us to cycle contact interactions from weakly to strongly repulsive, then strongly attractive, and finally weakly attractive. We show that this cycle is an energy-space topological pump (due to a quantum holonomy). Iterating this cycle offers an unexplored topological pumping method to create a hierarchy of quantum many-body scar states.

  Quantum heat engines and refrigerators are open quantum systems, whose dynamics can be well understood using a non-Hermitian formalism. We demonstrate, using a Paul-trapped ultracold ion, the first chiral quantum heating and refrigeration by dynamically encircling a closed loop. Our experiments have revealed that not only the adiabaticity-breakdown but also the Landau-Zener-St"uckelberg process play an essential role during dynamic encircling.

  We simulate a super-Tonks-Girardeau quench on dipolar bosons in a one-dimensional optical lattice. By calculating particle density, correlations, entropy measures, and natural occupations, we establish the regimes of stability as a function of dipolar interaction strength. Our study highlights the potential of long-range interactions to explore new mechanisms to steer and stabilize excited quantum states of matter.

  The strong coupling hybrid system consists of a cavity and a spin ensemble of the NV centers in diamond under external driving. We find that the dissipation and fluctuation dynamics of the system induce the transient quantum heat current. On the other hand, the energy renormalization and the external driving induce the quantum work power.
