CONCLUSIONS

Solved dynamic critical scaling behavior of the
TFI chain
Athermal  negative correlations
 Phase-locked high order ramps


Strong numerical evidence for universality


Tilted boson model has
same scaling functions
Experimentally accessible
Athermal features robust against
open boundary conditions
 Open b.c. simplifies measurement
 Time scales already available
