Description

This doctoral project aims to investigate the non-equilibrium dynamics of interacting quantum many-body systems, with a two-fold focus: first on closed quantum systems driving toward (or failing to achieve) thermalisation, and secondly on open quantum systems subject to dissipation and decoherence. Particular emphasis will be placed on regimes of slow dynamics and weak ergodicity breaking, and on the interplay between theory and experiment using state-of-the-art quantum simulators.
