We report on coherent interaction effects involving Rydberg atoms in a dense gas. Their long-range strong interaction is responsible for novel many-body physics. Universal scaling behaviour due to an underlying quantum phase transition is observed [1]. Also the coherence properties of Förster resonances giving rise to resonant dipolar interactions were investigated using a pair state interferometer [2]. We also report on our recent observation of coherent control of Rydberg atoms and van der Waals interaction between Rydberg atoms in thermal vapor cells [3].
