Résumé :
In this talk, I will give an overview of how we can explore experimentally the physics of quantum magnets, in and out of equilibrium, with arrays of single atoms trapped in optical tweezers arranged in almost arbitrary geometries, and made to interact by promoting them to highly-excited Rydberg states. I'll introduce the basics experimental tools at play, and give a few recent examples of the quantum many-body systems we explore using them.
