• Abstract summary: We study a doped one-dimensional spin chain in a staggered magnetic field and demonstrate that it supports a zoo of long-lived excitations. We introduce a strong-coupling theory describing the polaronic dressing and molecular binding of mesons to collective magnon excitations. Experimentally, the doped spin-chain in a staggered field can be directly realized in quantum gas microscopes.

• Abstract: It is a widely accepted view that the interplay of spin- and charge-degrees of freedom in doped antiferromagnets (AFMs) gives rise to the rich physics of high-temperature superconductors. Nevertheless, it remains unclear how effective low-energy degrees of freedom and the corresponding field theories emerge from microscopic models, including the $t-J$ and Hubbard Hamiltonians. A promising view comprises that the charge carriers have a rich internal parton structure on intermediate scales, but the interplay of the emergent partons with collective magnon excitations of the surrounding AFM remains unexplored. Here we study a doped one-dimensional spin chain in a staggered magnetic field and demonstrate that it supports a zoo of various long-lived excitations. These include magnons; mesonic pairs of spinons and chargons, along with their ro-vibrational excitations; and tetra-parton bound states of mesons and magnons. We identify these types of quasiparticles in various spectra using DMRG simulations. Moreover, we introduce a strong-coupling theory describing the polaronic dressing and molecular binding of mesons to collective magnon excitations. The effective theory can be solved by standard tools developed for polaronic problems, and can be extended to study similar physics in two-dimensional doped AFMs in the future. Experimentally, the doped spin-chain in a staggered field can be directly realized in quantum gas microscopes.

  We explore the strong coupling limit of doped bosonic quantum magnets, specifically the antiferromagnetic (AFM) bosonic $t-J$ model. We find that in the low doping regime, bosonic holes tend to form partially-filled stripes, akin to those observed in high-$T_c$ cuprates. Our findings shed light on the role of particle statistics in strongly correlated quantum matter and connect to phases in the 2D Fermi-Hubbard and $t-J$ models.

• Cavity magnonics with domain walls in insulating ferromagnetic wires [0.0]
  Magnetic domain walls (DWs) are topological defects that exhibit robust low-energy modes that can be harnessed for classical and neuromorphic computing. We show how to exploit a geometric Berry-phase interaction between the localized DWs and the extended magnons in short ferromagnetic insulating wires. We demonstrate that magnons can mediate long-range entangling interactions between qubits stored in distant DWs, which could facilitate the implementation of a universal set of quantum gates.

• Feshbach hypothesis of high-Tc superconductivity in cuprates [0.0]
  We present a Feshbach perspective on the origin of strong pairing in Fermi-Hubbard type models. Existing experimental and numerical results on hole-doped cuprates lead us to conjecture the existence of a light, long-lived, low-energy excited state of two holes. The emergent Feshbach resonance we propose could also underlie superconductivity in other doped antiferromagnetic Mott insulators.

• Directly imaging spin polarons in a kinetically frustrated Hubbard system [0.0]
  Magnetic polarons arise from interplay between kinetic energy of doped charge carriers and superexchange spin interactions. Here we image itinerant spin polarons in a triangular lattice Hubbard system realised with ultracold atoms. In contrast, around a charge dopant we find ferromagnetic correlations, a manifestation of the elusive Nagaoka effect.

• The strongly driven Fermi polaron [49.81410781350196]
  Quasiparticles are emergent excitations of matter that underlie much of our understanding of quantum many-body systems. We take advantage of the clean setting of homogeneous quantum gases and fast radio-frequency control to manipulate Fermi polarons. We measure the decay rate and the quasiparticle residue of the driven polaron from the Rabi oscillations between the two internal states.

  Superconductivity and charge density waves are observed in close vicinity in strongly correlated materials. We investigate the nature of such an intertwined state of matter stabilized in the phase diagram of the elementary $t$-$tprime$-$U$ Hubbard model. We provide conclusive evidence that the macroscopic wave functions of the superconducting fragments are well-described by soliton solutions of a Ginzburg-Landau equation.

  Magnetic field effects (MFE) in certain chemical reactions have been well established in the last five decades. We employ elaborate and realistic models of radical-pairs, considering its coupling to the local spin environment and the sensor. For two model systems, we derive signals of MFE detectable even in the weak coupling regime between radical-pair and NV quantum sensor.
