We experimentally investigate the spin dynamics of one and two neutral atoms strongly coupled to a high finesse optical cavity. We observe quantum jumps between hyperfine ground states of a single atom. The interaction-induced normal mode splitting of the atom-cavity system is measured via the atomic excitation. Moreover, we observe evidence for conditional dynamics of two atoms simultaneously coupled to the cavity mode. Our results point towards the realization of measurement-induced entanglement schemes for neutral atoms in optical cavities.

We investigate a novel type of conditional dynamic that occurs in the strongly-driven Jaynes-Cummings model with dissipation. Extending the work of Alsing and Carmichael [Quantum Opt. {bf 3}, 13 (1991)], we present a combined numerical and analytic s
tudy of the Stochastic Master Equation that describes the systems conditional evolution when the cavity output is continuously observed via homodyne detection, but atomic spontaneous emission is not monitored at all. We find that quantum jumps of the atomic state are induced by its dynamical coupling to the optical field, in order retroactively to justify atypical fluctuations in ocurring in the homodyne photocurrent.
Between mirrors, the density of electromagnetic modes differs from the one in free space. This changes the radiation properties of an atom as well as the light forces acting on an atom. It has profound consequences in the strong-coupling regime of ca
vity quantum electrodynamics. For a single atom trapped inside the cavity, we investigate the atom-cavity system by scanning the frequency of a probe laser for various atom-cavity detunings. The avoided crossing between atom and cavity resonance is visible in the transmission of the cavity. It is also visible in the loss rate of the atom from the intracavity dipole trap. On the normal-mode resonances, the dominant contribution to the loss rate originates from dipole-force fluctuations which are dramatically enhanced in the cavity. This conclusion is supported by Monte-Carlo simulations.
Laser cooled lanthanide atoms are ideal candidates with which to study strong and unconventional quantum magnetism with exotic phases. Here, we use state-of-the-art closed-coupling simulations to model quantum magnetism for pairs of ultracold spin-6
erbium lanthanide atoms placed in a deep optical lattice. In contrast to the widely used single-channel Hubbard model description of atoms and molecules in an optical lattice, we focus on the single-site multi-channel spin evolution due to spin-dependent contact, anisotropic van der Waals, and dipolar forces. This has allowed us to identify the leading mechanism, orbital anisotropy, that governs molecular spin dynamics among erbium atoms. The large magnetic moment and combined orbital angular momentum of the 4f-shell electrons are responsible for these strong anisotropic interactions and unconventional quantum magnetism. Multi-channel simulations of magnetic Cr atoms under similar trapping conditions show that their spin-evolution is controlled by spin-dependent contact interactions that are distinct in nature from the orbital anisotropy in Er. The role of an external magnetic field and the aspect ratio of the lattice site on spin dynamics is also investigated.
The quantum dynamics of a strongly driven, strongly coupled single-atom-cavity system is studied by evaluating time-dependent second- and third-order correlations of the emitted photons. The coherent energy exchange, first, between the atom and the c
avity mode, and second, between the atom-cavity system and the driving laser, is observed. Three-photon detections show an asymmetry in time, a consequence of the breakdown of detailed balance. The results are in good agreement with theory and are a first step towards the control of a quantum trajectory at larger driving strength.
We numerically study the dynamics and stationary states of a spin ensemble strongly coupled to a single-mode resonator subjected to loss and external driving. Employing a generalized cumulant expansion approach we analyze finite-size corrections to a
semiclassical description of amplitude bistability, which is a paradigm example of a driven-dissipative phase transition. Our theoretical model allows us to include inhomogeneous broadening of the spin ensemble and to capture in which way the quantum corrections approach the semiclassical limit for increasing ensemble size $N$. We set up a criterion for the validity of the Maxwell-Bloch equations and show that close to the critical point of amplitude bistability even very large spin ensembles consisting of up to $10^4$ spins feature significant deviations from the semiclassical theory.
