Implementation of a cloud-based system to study localized turbulence

Tabletop ultracold atom systems offer a versatile platform for investigating complex dynamics, including quantum turbulence. Traditionally, such studies have relied on custom cold-atom apparatuses housed in universities worldwide. However, the advent of cloud-based quantum technologies now enables remote experimentation, circumventing the need for costly and intricate local systems. This study presents and compares experimental data obtained from both a custom-built cold atom apparatus and a cloud-based counterpart, reflecting on the advantages and challenges of conducting research remotely. Furthermore, we discuss the potential for smaller institutions to participate in quantum research without significant initial funding requirements.
