Many-Body Quantum Electrodynamics Networks: Non-Equilibrium Condensed Matter Physics with Light

Understand

We review recent developments concerning non-equilibrium quantum dynamics and many-body physics with light, in superconducting circuits and Josephson analogues.

• We start with quantum impurity models summarizing the effect of dissipation and of driving the system.
• We mention theoretical and experimental efforts to characterize these non-equilibrium quantum systems.
• We show how Josephson junction systems can implement the equivalent of the Kondo effect with microwave photons.
