  • Abstract
    The back-action of a quantum measurement with a degenerate eigenvalue confines the evolution of the system inside the corresponding eigenspace. Using the Stark sublevels of a Rydberg atom, we report the first observation of such quantum Zeno dynamics in a non-trivial 51-dimension Hilbert space.
