摘要
We report on the observation of a prethermal state in a nonequilibrium, two-dimensional fluid of light. Direct measurements of the first order coherence function of the fluid reveal the dynamical emergence of algebraic correlations, a quasi-steady-state with properties close to those of thermal superfluids. By a controlled increase of the fluctuations, we observe a crossover from algebraic to short-range (exponential) correlations. We interpret this phenomenon as a nonequilibrium precursor of the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.
