  text: Spin mixtures of degenerate fermions are a cornerstone of quantum many-body
    physics, enabling superfluidity, polarons, and rich spin dynamics through s-wave
    scattering resonances. Combining them with strong, long-range dipolar interactions
    provides highly flexible control schemes promising even more exotic quantum phases.
    Recently, microwave shielding gave access to spin-polarized degenerate samples
    of dipolar fermionic molecules, where tunable p-wave interactions were enabled
    by field-linked resonances available only by compromising the shielding (due to
    experimental limitations). Here, we study the scattering properties of a fermionic
    dipolar spin mixture and show that a universal s-wave resonance is readily accessible
    without compromising the shielding. We develop a universal description of the
    tunable s-wave interaction and weakly bound tetratomic states based on the microwave-field
    parameters. The s-wave resonance paves the way to stable, controllable and strongly-interacting
    dipolar spin mixtures of deeply degenerate fermions and supports favorable conditions
    to reach this regime via evaporative cooling.

  text: We present a general theoretical framework for helical dichroism (HD), establishing
    an explicit link between chiral resolution and orbital angular momentum (OAM)
    exchange in light–matter interaction. Tracing microscopic mechanisms of the OAM
    transfer, we derive rotational selection rules, which establish that HD emerges
    only from the spin–orbit coupling of light, even for beams without the far-field
    OAM. Our findings refine the conditions for observing HD, provide a tool to re-examine
    the outcome of prior experiments, and guide future designs for chiral sensing
    with structured light.

  text: Despite its pivotal role in optical manipulation, high capacity communications,
    and quantum information, a general measure of orbital angular momentum (OAM) in
    structured light remains elusive. In optical fields, where multiple vortices coexist,
    the local nature of vortex OAM and the absence of a common rotation axis make
    the total OAM of the field difficult to quantify. Here, we introduce the R index—a
    metric that captures the intrinsic OAM content of any structured optical field,
    from pure Laguerre–Gaussian modes to arbitrary multi vortex superpositions. Not
    only does this metric quantify the total OAM, it also assesses field purity, providing
    insight into the fidelity and robustness of the OAM generation. By unifying OAM
    characterization into a single figure of merit, the R index enables direct comparison
    across diverse beam profiles and facilitates the identification of optimal configurations
    for both foundational studies and applied technologies.

  text: Kapitza-Dirac scattering, the diffraction of matter waves from a standing
    light field, is widely utilized in ultracold gases, but its behavior in the strongly
    interacting regime is an open question. Here, we develop a numerically exact two-body
    description of Kapitza-Dirac scattering for two contact-interacting atoms in a
    one-dimensional harmonic trap subjected to a pulsed optical lattice, enabling
    us to obtain the numerically exact dynamics. We map how interaction strength,
    lattice depth, lattice wave number, and pulse duration reshape the diffraction
    pattern, leading to an interaction-dependent population redistribution in real
    and momentum space. By comparing the exact dynamics to an impulsive sudden-approximation
    description, we delineate the parameter regimes where it remains accurate and
    those, notably at strong attraction and small lattice wave number, where it fails.
    Our results provide a controlled few-body benchmark for interacting Kapitza-Dirac
    scattering and quantitative guidance for Kapitza-Dirac-based probes of ultracold
    atomic systems.

  text: We demonstrate the formation of ferroelectric domain-wall polarons in a minimal
    two-dimensional lattice model of electrons interacting with rotating dipoles.
    Along the domain wall, the rotors polarize in opposite directions, causing the
    electron to localize along a particular lattice direction. The rotor-electron
    coupling is identified as the origin of a structural instability in the crystal
    that leads to the domain-wall formation via a symmetry-breaking process. Our results
    provide the first theoretical description of ferroelectric polarons, as discussed
    in the context of soft semiconductors.

  text: We theoretically investigate the stationary properties of a spin-1/2 impurity
    immersed in a one-dimensional confined Bose gas. In particular, we consider coherently
    coupled spin states with an external field, where only one spin component interacts
    with the bath, enabling light dressing of the impurity and spin-dependent bath-impurity
    interactions. Through detailed comparisons with ab-initio many-body simulations,
    we demonstrate that the composite system is accurately described by a simplified
    effective Hamiltonian. The latter builds upon previously developed effective potential
    approaches in the absence of light dressing. It can be used to extract the impurity
    energy, residue, effective mass, and anharmonicity induced by the phononic dressing.
    Light-dressing is shown to increase the polaron residue, undressing the impurity
    from phononic excitations because of strong spin coupling. For strong repulsions,
    previously shown to trigger dynamical Bose polaron decay (a phenomenon called
    temporal orthogonality catastrophe), it is explained that strong light-dressing
    stabilizes a repulsive polaron-dressed state. Our results establish the effective
    Hamiltonian framework as a powerful tool for exploring strongly interacting polaronic
    systems and corroborating forthcoming experimental realizations.

  text: 'We investigate the real-time dynamics of a quenched quantum impurity immersed
    in a one-dimensional ultracold Fermi gas, focusing on the breakdown of the adiabatic
    Born-Oppenheimer approximation due to nonadiabatic effects. Despite a sizable
    impurity-bath mass imbalance, increasing interactions induce strong nonadiabatic
    couplings, disrupting adiabatic motion and enabling population transfer between
    the adiabatic potential energy curves. These transitions are governed by conical
    intersections arising from the pseudo Jahn-Teller effect, dynamically shaping
    the impurity''s motion through the bath. Using ab initio simulations via the multilayer
    multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree method and a multichannel Born-Oppenheimer
    framework, we track the impurity''s evolution and directly prove the dynamical
    manifestation of the pseudo Jahn-Teller effect. We analyze two key scenarios:
    (i) a small initial shift, where a single avoided crossing drives transitions,
    and (ii) a large shift, where multiple avoided crossings lead to enhanced nonadiabaticity,
    self-trapping, and energy redistribution. Our findings establish ultracold fermionic
    few-body systems as tunable platforms for studying nonadiabatic quantum dynamics,
    opening new avenues for controlled impurity transport in strongly correlated environments.'

  text: We demonstrate the failure of the adiabatic Born-Oppenheimer approximation
    to describe the ground state of a quantum impurity within an ultracold Fermi gas
    despite substantial mass differences between the bath and impurity species. Increasing
    repulsion leads to the appearance of nonadiabatic couplings between the fast bath
    and slow impurity degrees of freedom, which reduce the parity symmetry of the
    latter according to the pseudo Jahn-Teller effect. The presence of this mechanism
    is associated to a conical intersection involving the impurity position and the
    inverse of the interaction strength, which acts as a synthetic dimension. We elucidate
    the presence of these effects via a detailed ground-state analysis involving the
    comparison of ab initio fully correlated simulations with effective models. Our
    study suggests ultracold atomic ensembles as potent emulators of complex molecular
    phenomena.

  text: We present a theory describing the interaction of structured light, such as
    light carrying orbital angular momentum, with molecules. The light-matter interaction
    Hamiltonian we derive is expressed through couplings between spherical gradients
    of the electric field and the (transition) electric multipole moments of a particle
    of any nontrivial rotation point group. Our model can therefore accommodate an
    arbitrary complexity of the molecular and electric field structure, and it can
    be straightforwardly extended to atoms or nanostructures. Applying this framework
    to rovibrational spectroscopy of molecules, we uncover the general mechanism of
    angular momentum exchange between the spin and orbital angular momenta of light,
    molecular rotation, and its center-of-mass motion. We show that the nonzero vorticity
    of Laguerre-Gaussian beams can strongly enhance certain rovibrational transitions
    that are considered forbidden in the case of nonhelical light. We discuss the
    experimental requirements for the observation of these forbidden transitions in
    state-of-the-art spatially resolved spectroscopy measurements.

  text: We present a minimal model of ferroelectric large polarons, which are suggested
    as one of the mechanisms responsible for the unique charge transport properties
    of hybrid perovskites. We demonstrate that short-ranged charge–rotor interactions
    lead to long-range ferroelectric ordering of rotors, which strongly affects the
    carrier mobility. In the nonperturbative regime, where our theory cannot be reduced
    to any of the earlier models, we reveal that the polaron is characterized by large
    coherence length and a roughly tenfold increase of the effective mass as compared
    to the bare mass. These results are in good agreement with other theoretical predictions
    for ferroelectric polarons. Our model establishes a general phenomenological framework
    for ferroelectric polarons providing the starting point for future studies of
    their role in the transport properties of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites.

  text: "We investigate spin-charge separation of a spin-\r\n1\r\n2\r\n Fermi system
    confined in a triple well where multiple bands are occupied. We assume that our
    finite fermionic system is close to fully spin polarized while being doped by
    a hole and an impurity fermion with opposite spin. Our setup involves ferromagnetic
    couplings among the particles in different bands, leading to the development of
    strong spin-transport correlations in an intermediate interaction regime. Interactions
    are then strong enough to lift the degeneracy among singlet and triplet spin configurations
    in the well of the spin impurity but not strong enough to prohibit hole-induced
    magnetic excitations to the singlet state. Despite the strong spin-hole correlations,
    the system exhibits spin-charge deconfinement allowing for long-range entanglement
    of the spatial and spin degrees of freedom."

  text: We investigate the formation of magnetic Bose polaron, an impurity atom dressed
    by spin-wave excitations, in a one-dimensional spinor Bose gas. Within an effective
    potential model, the impurity is strongly confined by the host excitations which
    can even overcome the impurity-medium repulsion leading to a self-localized quasi-particle
    state. The phase diagram of the attractive and self-bound repulsive magnetic polaron,
    repulsive non-magnetic (Fröhlich-type) polaron and impurity-medium phase-separation
    regimes is explored with respect to the Rabi-coupling between the spin components,
    spin–spin interactions and impurity-medium coupling. The residue of such magnetic
    polarons decreases substantially in both strong attractive and repulsive branches
    with strong impurity-spin interactions, illustrating significant dressing of the
    impurity. The impurity can be used to probe and maneuver the spin polarization
    of the magnetic medium while suppressing ferromagnetic spin–spin correlations.
    It is shown that mean-field theory fails as the spinor gas approaches immiscibility
    since the generated spin-wave excitations are prominent. Our findings illustrate
    that impurities can be utilized to generate controllable spin–spin correlations
    and magnetic polaron states which can be realized with current cold atom setups.
