Simulating 3D flexible Rydberg aggegrates with surface hopping — •Karsten Leonhardt, Sebastian Wüster, and Jan Michael Rost — Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems

Flexible Rydberg aggregates [1] are assemblies of highly excited light atoms, which are set into directed motion by resonant dipole-dipole interaction [1-4]. They provide a clean platform to study phenomena such as entanglement transport [2,3] and coherent splitting of excitons [4]. Very useful for the simulation of these systems is the surface hopping algorithm (FSSH) [5]. Nevertheless, to study these aggregates in 3D [TALK: A 270], a modification of the FSSH algorithm is needed, which we present here together with recent results of flexible Rydberg aggregates.
