• Abstract: We study the properties of a monitored ensemble of atoms driven by a laser field and in the presence of collective decay. The properties of the quantum trajectories describing the atomic cloud drastically depend on the monitoring protocol and are distinct from those of the average density matrix. By varying the strength of the external drive, a measurement-induced phase transition occurs separating two phases with entanglement entropy scaling sub-extensively with the system size. Incidentally, the critical point coincides with the superradiance transition of the trajectory-averaged dynamics. Our setup is implementable in current light-matter interaction devices, and most notably, the monitored dynamics is free from the post-selection measurement problem, even in the case of imperfect monitoring.

  We study a dense ensemble illuminated by a strong coherent drive while interacting via dipole-dipole interactions. Although the steady-state features some similarities to the reported superradiant to normal non-induced transition, we observe significant qualitative and quantitative differences. We develop a simple theoretical model that explains the scaling properties by accounting for interaction-equilibrium inhomogeneous effects and spontaneous emission.

  We study the time evolution of long quantum spin chains subjected to continuous monitoring via matrix product states (MPS) at fixed bond dimension. We show that the error rate displays a phase transition in the monitoring strength, which can be well detected by scaling analysis with relatively low values of bond dimensions.

• Interactions and integrability in weakly monitored Hamiltonian systems [0.0]
  Interspersing unitary dynamics with local measurements results in measurement-induced phases and transitions in quantum systems. Two types of transitions have been observed, characterized by an abrupt change in the system size scaling of entanglement entropy. We identify the key ingredients responsible for the entanglement scaling in the weakly monitored phase.

  We study the spatial profiles of the median density and current in a non-interacting fermions system. We find that, contrary to the averaged values, the spatial profiles of the median density and current are non-trivial. While we are not able to identify a sharp phase transition as a function of the monitoring rate, our work highlights the usefulness of characterizing typical behavior.

  We investigate entanglement dynamics in continuously monitored open quantum systems featuring current-carrying non-equilibrium states. We show that monitoring enhances its entanglement negativity at long times, which otherwise decays to zero in absence of measurements. Our work unveils the double role of weak monitoring in current-driven open quantum systems, simultaneously damping transport and enhancing entanglement.
