Abstract
Probing nonequilibrium dynamics in a trapped, inhomogeneous atomic quantum gas is a challenging task because coexisting mass transport and spreading of quantum correlations often make the problem intractable. By removing density inhomogeneity in an atomic quantum gas and employing local control of chemical potential as well as interaction parameters, it is possible to perform quasiparticle control and initiate and probe collective quantum dynamics without or with a controlled mass flow. In this chapter, we introduce our approach toward probing nonequilibrium dynamics with a fully controllable quantum simulator.
