Spin Dynamics in a Tunable Heisenberg Magnet Realized with Ultracold Atoms

Spin is the elementary unit of magnetism. The interactions between many spins give a material its magnetic properties. This thesis focusses on one of the simplest magnetic materials: A one-dimensional chain of spins with tunable nearest-neighbor interactions. This system is described by the Heisenbe...
