Title: Anomalous tunneling of collective excitations in a Rydberg atomic system

Abstract: We study tunneling properties of low-energy excitations through a potential barrier in a spin-1/2 ferromagnetic XY model with dipole-dipole interactions, which has been realized with Rydberg atoms in an optical tweezer array [1]. In a system with spontaneous breaking of U(1) symmetry and short-range interaction, it is known that low-energy excitations exhibit anomalous tunneling behavior, in which the transmission probability increases with decreasing the excitation energy and the barrier is completely transparent at the zero-energy limit [2]. We aim to elucidate how the long-range nature of the dipole-dipole interaction affects such tunneling properties of the low-energy excitations. Specifically, within a mean field theory, we numerically calculate the transmission probability. As a result, we find that anomalous tunneling indeed occurs. We also discuss physical properties unique to the systems with long-range interactions.
