Abstract: Under suitable experimental conditions collective spin-wave excitations, magnons, form a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) where the spins precess with a globally coherent phase. Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons has been reported in a few systems, including superfluid phases of $^3$He, solid state systems such as Yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) films, and cold atomic gases. Among these systems, the superfluid phases of $^3$He provide a nearly ideal test bench for coherent magnon physics owing to experimentally proven spin superfluidity, the long lifetime of the magnon condensate, and the versatility of the accessible phenomena. We first briefly recap the properties of the different magnon BEC systems, with focus on superfluid $^3$He. The main body of this review summarizes recent advances in application of magnon BEC as a laboratory to study basic physical phenomena connecting to diverse areas from particle physics and cosmology to new phases of condensed matter. This line of research complements the ongoing efforts to utilize magnon BECs as probes and components for potentially room-temperature quantum devices. In conclusion, we provide a roadmap for future directions in the field of applications of magnon BEC to fundamental research.

Persistent currents in ultracold gases [0.0]
Persistent currents flowing in spatially closed tracks define one of the most iconic concepts in mesoscopic physics. They have been studied in solid-state platforms such as superfluids, superconductors and metals. We discuss how persistent currents can form the basis of new technological applications like matter-wave gyroscopes and interferometers.

Thermalization and Criticality on an Analog-Digital Quantum Simulator [133.58336306417294]
We present a quantum simulator comprising 69 superconducting qubits which supports both universal quantum gates and high-fidelity analog evolution. We observe signatures of the classical Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition, as well as strong deviations from Kibble-Zurek scaling predictions. We digitally prepare the system in pairwise-entangled dimer states and image the transport of energy and vorticity during thermalization.

Visualizing spinon Fermi surfaces with time-dependent spectroscopy [62.997667081978825]
We propose applying time-dependent photo-emission spectroscopy, an established tool in solid state systems, in cold atom quantum simulators. We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.
