• Abstract summary: We realize Abelian anyons in 1D with arbitrary exchange statistics using ultracold atoms in an optical lattice. We explore the dynamical behavior of two anyons undergoing quantum walks, and observe the anyonic Hanbury Brown-Twiss effect. Our work forms the foundation for exploring the many-body behavior of 1D anyons.

• Abstract: Low-dimensional quantum systems can host anyons, particles with exchange statistics that are neither bosonic nor fermionic. Despite indications of a wealth of exotic phenomena, the physics of anyons in one dimension (1D) remains largely unexplored. Here, we realize Abelian anyons in 1D with arbitrary exchange statistics using ultracold atoms in an optical lattice, where we engineer the statistical phase via a density-dependent Peierls phase. We explore the dynamical behavior of two anyons undergoing quantum walks, and observe the anyonic Hanbury Brown-Twiss effect, as well as the formation of bound states without on-site interactions. Once interactions are introduced, we observe spatially asymmetric transport in contrast to the symmetric dynamics of bosons and fermions. Our work forms the foundation for exploring the many-body behavior of 1D anyons.

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.

  One of the hallmarks of interacting systems is the formation of multi-particle bound states. We develop a high fidelity parameterizable fSim gate that implements the periodic quantum circuit of the spin-1/2 XXZ model. By placing microwave photons in adjacent qubit sites, we study the propagation of these excitations and observe their bound nature for up to 5 photons.

• Effective Theory for the Measurement-Induced Phase Transition of Dirac Fermions [0.0]
  A wave function exposed to measurements undergoes pure state dynamics. For many-particle systems, the competition of these different elements of dynamics can give rise to a scenario similar to quantum phase transitions. A key finding is that this field theory decouples into one set of degrees of freedom that heats up indefinitely.
