Frustrated Superradiant Phase Transition

JC Zhao, Myung-Joong Hwang

Frustration is an interesting phenomenon in spin physics, where the system cannot minimize its energy due to conflicting constraints. We show that the order parameters during a superradiant phase transition can also become frustrated. This can lead to many exotic critical behaviors, such as the emergence of two diverging time scales.

Anomalous multicritical phenomena and frustration induced by synthetic magnetic fields

JC Zhao, Myung-Joong Hwang

We identify an anomalous superradiant phase transition in a synthetic magnetic field. Due to the breaking of time-reversal symmetry, the system can exhibit a series of first-order transitions as we tune the magnetic flux. Moreover, the system displays novel behaviors in the normal phase, such as a bounded photon number, in contrast to the divergent photon number observed in other superradiant phase transitions.

Embedded inertial sensor for tracking projectile impact on granular media

Stefan Köstler, JC Zhao, Chen Lyu, Simeon Völkel and Kai Huang

Using inertial measurement units embedded in a projectile, we obtain the trajectory of the projectile impacting a granular medium under microgravity. In addition to standard algorithms for trajectory reconstruction, we focus on solutions to various sources of error to accurately determine the projectile's trajectory.
