• Abstract: Electromagnetically induced transparency suppresses optical absorption through destructive interference, playing a central role in light-matter interaction and quantum information science. We report matter-wave induced transparency, where atomic collisional interactions induce transmission through a lossy molecular potential for the incident atomic scattering waves. Using cesium Bose-Einstein condensates and modulation-induced Feshbach resonances, we realize a three-level atom-molecule coupled system with unprecedented flexibility. Under the dark state condition, a narrow and tunable transparency window appears within a broad dissipative collisional resonance. The transparency window linewidth is controlled by modulation-induced coupling. And scattering pathways are selectable via multifrequency Floquet modulation. These results establish an interference-based route for exploring programmable nonequilibrium and non-Hermitian physics, steering quantum chemistry and precision measurements.

• Nonreciprocal recovery of electromagnetically induced transparency by wavenumber mismatch in hot atoms [0.0699049312989311]
  In a three-level atomic ladder-system, Doppler broadening limits the visibility of electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT) when the probe and control fields are co-propagating. We show the underlying mechanism to be an avoided crossing of the states dressed by the coupling laser as a function of atomic velocities when $k_pk_c$. We investigate how the non-reciprocity scales with wavelength mismatch and show how to experimentally demonstrate the effect in a simple Rydberg-EIT system using thermal Rubidium atoms.

  A quantum simulation of magnetism in trapped-ion systems makes use of the crystal vibrations to mediate pairwise interactions between spins. These interactions can be accounted for by a long-wavelength relativistic theory, where the phonons are described by a coarse-grained Klein-Gordon field. We show that thermal effects, which can be controlled by laser cooling, can unveil this flow through the appearance of thermal masses in interacting QFTs.
