AbstractAbstract
[en] We explore the possibility for translationally invariant quantum many-body systems to undergo a dynamical glass transition, at which ergodicity and translational invariance break down spontaneously, driven entirely by quantum effects. In contrast to analogous classical systems, where the existence of such an ideal glass transition remains a controversial issue, a genuine phase transition is predicted in the quantum regime. This ideal quantum glass transition can be regarded as a many-body localization transition due to self-generated disorder. Despite their lack of thermalization, these disorder-free quantum glasses do not possess an extensive set of local conserved operators, unlike what is conjectured for many-body localized systems with strong quenched disorder

AbstractAbstract
[en] A proposed new method of cooling positronium is to realize the Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) of positronium. We perform detailed studies of three processes: (1) thermalization processes between positronium and the silica walls of a cavity, (2) Ps–Ps scattering and (3) laser cooling. The thermalization process is shown to be not sufficient for BEC. Ps–Ps collision is shown to have a big effect on the cooling performance. We combine both methods and establish an efficient cooling process for BEC. We also propose a new optical laser system for the cooling. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] We numerically explore the many body localization (MBL) transition through the lens of the entanglement spectrum. While a direct transition from localization to thermalization is believed to be obtained in the thermodynamic limit (the exact details of which remain an open problem), in finite system sizes there exists an intermediate ‘quantum critical’ regime. Previous numerical investigations have explored the crossover from thermalization to criticality, and have used this to place a numerical lower bound on the critical disorder strength for MBL. A careful analysis of the high energy part of the entanglement spectrum (which contains universal information about the critical point) allows us to study the crossover from criticality to MBL, and we find evidence for such a crossover which could allow us to place a numerical upper bound on the critical disorder strength for MBL.

AbstractAbstract
[en] The interaction between an initially pure two-level atom and the mixed thermal quantized field mode in the framework of the Jaynes–Cummings model is considered with the employment of quantum causal analysis . At the high temperature of the field, a distinction between the resulting properties of initially excited and ground atom states smoothes over and the whole state turns out to be causally asymmetric, entangled and ‘classical’ in the entropic sense. The average asymptotic entanglement is found. It is revealed that the thermalization acting on the field corresponds to the stronger causality and entanglement decay, rather than the thermalization acting only on the atom. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) states that for nonintegrable systems, each energy eigenstate accurately gives microcanonical expectation values for a class of observables. In this paper, we explore the ETH in terms of the time-energy uncertainty and an intrinsic thermal nature shared by the majority of quasi eigenstates of operationally defined ‘time operator’: First, we show that the energy eigenstates are superposition of uncountably many quasi eigenstates of suitably defined ‘time operator’. Majority of such quasi eigenstates are thermal for thermodynamic isolated quantum many-body systems and approximately orthogonal in terms of extremely short relaxation time of the fidelity. In this manner, our scenario provides a theoretical explanation of ETH. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] We aim to study the participant-spectator matter over a wide range of energies of vanishing flow and masses. For this, we have employed different model parameters at central and semicentral colliding geometries. A nearly mass independent nature of the participant matter has been obtained at the energy of vanishing flow. Further, participant matter can also act as an indicator to study the degree of thermalization.

AbstractAbstract
[en] We analyze a class of energy and wealth redistribution models, characterizing their stationary measures and showing that they have a discrete dual process. In particular we show that the wealth distribution model with non-zero saving propensity can never have invariant product measures. We also introduce diffusion processes associated to the wealth distribution models by ‘instantaneous thermalization’. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] The experimental control and observation of quantum many-body systems has become a reality with the advent of ultracold quantum matter. The high level of isolation of these experiments, together with the development of novel measurement techniques, has revived a fundamental debate concerning the thermal equilibration of isolated quantum systems, commonly named "quantum thermalization". In this thesis we make use of a quantum-gas microscope to explore the thermalizing dynamics of highly isolated systems of ultracold bosonic atoms in optical lattices. The ability to prepare and control quantum systems made up of hundreds of atoms makes it possible to explore regimes that represent a challenge for classical numeric simulations. A major part of this dissertation deals with Bose-Hubbard systems in the presence of quenched disorder. We begin by studying the microscopic properties of its phases near equilibrium, where by tuning the strength of the disorder, observe features consistent with the emergence of a so-called Bose-glass phase. We then continue by preparing states far from equilibrium and exploring their quantum many-body dynamics. In particular, we observe signatures of the phenomenon of "many-body localization", which implies a breakdown of quantum thermalization. In addition, we study whether localized systems can be thermalized via the coupling to a bath of few degrees of freedom, i.e. a quantum bath. We do so by preparing a mixture of two interacting atomic species, where one acts as the bath and the other as the localized system. We do observe delocalizing dynamics for large enough baths, though in regimes of weak coupling localization can survive for extremely long times. The second main topic of this thesis is the thermalization of periodically driven many-body systems, so-called Floquet thermalization. In these systems, the absence of energy conservation eventually brings any initial state into a featureless infinite-temperature one. However, for sufficiently high frequencies this thermalization process can take arbitrarily long times, which can enable the engineering of exotic long-lived prethermal states. We use the high isolation of our system, together with the high sensitivity of quantum-gas microscopy, to measure the heating rates for a range of driving frequencies and interaction regimes. Our results show a dramatic suppression of the heating as the frequency of the drive is increased, which is consistent with theoretical expectations.

AbstractAbstract
[en] A preliminary design has been developed for a high-resolution, transportable neutron radiology system (TNRS) concept. The primary system requirement is taken to be a thermal neutron flux of 106n/(cm2-sec) with a L/D ratio of 100. The approach is to use an accelerator-driven neutron source, with a radiofrequency quadrupole (RFQ) as the primary accelerator component. Initial concepts for all of the major components of the system have been developed, and selected key parts have been examined further. An overview of the system design is presented, together with brief summaries of the concepts for the ion source, low energy beam transport (LEBT), RFQ, high energy beam transport (HEBT), target, moderator, collimator, image collection, power, cooling, vacuum, structure, robotics, control system, data analysis, transport vehicle, and site support. The use of trade studies for optimizing the TNRS concept are also described. copyright 1997 American Institute of Physics
