Bloch oscillations and matter-wave localization of a dipolar quantum gas in a one-dimensional lattice

Quantum fluctuations stabilize dense self-bound macroscopic quantum states in quantum gases. This work places an Erbium dipolar ultracold atomic gas with dominantly attractive long-range interactions in a 1D periodic lattice, and uses interferometric techniques and numerical modeling to characterize...
