Abstract: The absence of energy dissipation leads to an intriguing out-of-equilibrium dynamics for ultracold polar gases in optical lattices, characterized by the formation of dynamically bound on-site and inter-site clusters of two or more particles, and by an effective blockade repulsion. These effects combined with the controlled preparation of initial states available in cold-gas experiments can be employed to create interesting out-of-equilibrium states. These include quasiequilibrated effectively repulsive 1D gases for attractive dipolar interactions and dynamically bound crystals. Furthermore, nonequilibrium polar lattice gases can offer a promising scenario for the study of quasi-many-body localization in the absence of quenched disorder. This fascinating out-of-equilibrium dynamics for ultracold polar gases in optical lattices may be accessible in on-going experiments.
