Defect generation and dynamics during quenching in finite size homogeneous ion chains
An equally spaced linear chain of ions provides a test-bed for studying the defect formation during a topological phase transition from a linear to a zig-zag configuration. By using a particular axial potential leading to an homogeneous ion chain, the boundary conditions are not needed, allowing new...
