Non-Abelian adiabatic geometric transformations in a cold strontium gas by Leroux, Frederic, Miniatura, Christian, Grémaud, Benoît, Wilkowski, David, Rebhi, Riadh, Pandey, K., Chevy, F.

“…Topology, geometry, and gauge fields play key roles in quantum physics as exemplified by fundamental phenomena such as the Aharonov–Bohm effect, the integer quantum Hall effect, the spin Hall, and topological insulators. The concept of topological protection has also become a salient ingredient in many schemes for quantum information processing and fault-tolerant quantum computation. …”
