Breaking strong symmetries in dissipative quantum systems: Bosonic atoms coupled to a cavity
Catalin-Mihai Halati, Ameneh Sheikhan, Corinna Kollath
Abstract
The authors investigate the effects of a strong symmetry on the self-organization transition of bosonic atoms in a dissipative cavity and analyze the non-equilibrium dynamics which results from breaking the strong symmetry.
