Quantum Kibble–Zurek mechanism and critical dynamics on a programmable Rydberg simulator, Published online: 01 April 2019; doi:10.1038/s41586-019-1070-1

A Rydberg atom quantum simulator with programmable interactions is used to experimentally verify the quantum Kibble–Zurek mechanism through the growth of spatial correlations during quantum phase transitions.
