Quantum Quenches

Quantum Quenches is a theoretical protocol in many-body physics wherein a quantum system is abruptly driven out of equilibrium by a sudden change in its Hamiltonian parameters, distinguishing it from adiabatic or gradual variations by inducing non-equilibrium dynamics and enabling the study of thermalization, entanglement growth, and dynamical phase transitions.
