Artificial gauge fields are a powerful tool for quantum simulation, allowing e.g. for the investigation of quantum Hall physics with charge neutral atoms in optical lattices. Considering an interacting bosonic ladder system, we investigate state preparation protocols, where a homogeneous magnetic field is switched on smoothly. Using simulations based on density matrix renormalization group (DMRG), we find that the fidelity for the degree of adiabaticity depends dramatically on the choice of the vector potential (i.e. the Peierls phases) used to implement the magnetic field, i.e. on the final gauge. This effect can be explained in terms of artificial electric fields resulting from the time-dependent vector potentials.
