Abstract: We analyze the non-Markovian spontaneous emission dynamics of a two-level test atom placed in a cavity formed by two atomic arrays in a waveguide quantum electrodynamics (QED) setup. We demonstrate a crossover from single-mode to multimode strong coupling cavity QED as the cavity length $ \sim d$ becomes comparable to the coherence length associated with collective spontaneous emission $\sim v/(N\gamma)$. The resulting non-Markovian dynamics of the test atom and the emergent spectral density of the field are analyzed as a function of various tunable atomic array parameters: number of atoms, length of the atomic cavity, and resonance frequency of the atoms forming the atomic mirrors. Our results show limitations to cooperatively enhanced light-matter coupling in the presence of time-delayed feedback. We further illustrate that the non-Markovian system dynamics can be efficiently approximated in terms of a few modes of the emergent spectral density of the field.

Higher-order topological Peierls insulator in a two-dimensional atom-cavity system [58.720142291102135]
We show how photon-mediated interactions give rise to a plaquette-ordered bond pattern in the atomic ground state. The pattern opens a non-trivial topological gap in 2D, resulting in a higher-order topological phase hosting corner states. Our work shows how atomic quantum simulators can be harnessed to investigate novel strongly-correlated topological phenomena.

Generalized Dicke model and gauge-invariant master equations for two atoms in ultrastrongly-coupled cavity quantum electrodynamics [0.0]
We study a generalization of the well-known Dicke model, using two dissimilar atoms in the regime of ultrastrongly coupled cavity quantum electrodynamics. In particular, we show multiple resonances in the cavity spectra that are visible off-resonance, which cannot be seen when the second atom is on-resonance with the rest of the system.

Observation of superradiant bursts in a cascaded quantum system [0.0]
Dicke superradiance describes the collective radiative decay of a fully inverted ensemble of two-level atoms. We experimentally investigate this effect for a chiral, i.e.,direction-dependent light--matter coupling. Our results shed light on the collective radiative dynamics of cascaded quantum many-body systems.

Correlated steady states and Raman lasing in continuously pumped and probed atomic ensembles [68.8204255655161]
We consider an ensemble of Alkali atoms that are continuously optically pumped and probed. Due to the collective scattering of photons at large optical depth, the steady state of atoms does not correspond to an uncorrelated tensor-product state. We find and characterize regimes of Raman lasing, akin to the model of a superradiant laser.

We study the collective emission of a beam of atomic dipoles into an optical cavity. By developing a theoretical description of the coupled atom-cavity dynamics we analyze the stationary atomic configurations. We find that the pulling is small if the cavity linewidth is much larger than the collective linewidth of the atomic beam.
