This repository contains supporting data and plotting code for
"Quasi-solitons in Rydberg atom chains" (arXiv title: Discrete solitons in Rydberg atom chains) by Aron Kerschbaumer, Jean-Yves Desaules, Marko Ljubotina, and Maksym Serbyn.

Preprint DOI: https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2507.13196

This data release follows the figure numbering and plotted data of the
Nature Communications manuscript version (to be released). The arXiv preprint may differ
in figure ordering or content. The journal DOI will be added after publication. 

The data and plotting notebook/code are provided under CC BY-NC 4.0 license.


The data used for the manuscript plots are stored in the `Data` folder as `.npz` files. The file names follow the figure numbering in the `NatCom_Soliton_Plots.ipynb` notebook: `Fig1.npz` is used for Fig. 1, `Fig2.npz` for Fig. 2, and `Sup_Fig1.npz` for Supplementary Fig.1 etc.

The notebook `NatCom_Soliton_Plots.ipynb` loads the data files, illustrates how the stored arrays are used to generate the corresponding plots, and saves the resulting figures in the `Figures` folder. The notebook assumes that folders named `Data` and `Figures` exist in the directory from which it is executed. The saved figure names follow the manuscript numbering, for example `Fig1.pdf`, `Fig3.pdf` for main text figures `Sup_Fig7.pdf`, and `Sup_Fig14.pdf` for supplement figures.

In the `Figures` folder, the figures `Fig2.pdf`, `Fig4.pdf` and `Sup_Fig5.pdf` contain plots created via the `NatCom_Soliton_Plots.ipynb` file and combined with schematic illustrations to produce the figures shown in the paper.

Array names are kept descriptive and close to the plotted quantities. Common names include `times` for time grids, `n_density` for the number operator density, `energy_density` for energy-like observables, `overlap_matrix` or `fidelities` for fidelities or translation fidelities, and `angles_*` for classical angle trajectories.
