• Abstract summary: We show that the notion of Landau levels and the quantum Hall effect can be generalized to 2d non-crystalline lattices without spatial long-range order. The existence of these bands imply that non-crystalline systems in magnetic fields can support the hallmark quantum effects which have been typically associated with crystalline solids.

• Abstract: The spectrum of charged particles in translation-invariant systems in a magnetic field is characterized by the Landau levels, which play a fundamental role in the thermodynamic and transport properties of solids. The topological nature and the approximate degeneracy of the Landau levels are known to also survive on crystalline lattices with discrete translation symmetry when the magnetic flux through a primitive cell is small compared to the flux quantum. Here we show that the notion of Landau levels and the quantum Hall effect can be generalized to 2d non-crystalline lattices without spatial long-range order. Remarkably, even when the spatial correlations decay over microscopic distances, 2d systems can exhibit a number of well-resolved Landau-like bands. The existence of these bands imply that non-crystalline systems in magnetic fields can support the hallmark quantum effects which have been typically associated with crystalline solids.

• 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.

• Quantum sensing via magnetic-noise-protected states in an electronic spin dyad [0.0]
  We investigate the coherent spin dynamics of a hetero-spin system formed by a spin S=1 featuring a non-zero crystal field. We show that the zero-quantum coherences we create between them can be remarkably long-lived. These spin dyads could be exploited as nanoscale gradiometers for precision magnetometry or as probes for magnetic-noise-free electrometry and thermal sensing.

  Long-range and anisotropic interactions promote rich spatial structure in quantum mechanical many-body systems. We show that novel strongly correlated quantum phases can be realized using long-range dipolar interaction in optical lattices. This work opens the door to quantum simulations of a wide range of lattice models with long-range and anisotropic interactions.

  We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
