I will describe the JILA search for the electron’s electric dipole moment using molecular ions. In particular, I will highlight the use of rotating electric fields and magnetic fields for…
…resonance. This resonance results from three free atoms coupling to an Efimov trimer state. At a positive two-body scattering length, we observe a scattering resonance in atom-dimer collisions, which we…
The normal state of an unpolarized two-component Fermi gas in the strong coupling region of the BCS-BEC crossover has a single particle spectrum with a distinct suppression of the spectral…
Manipulating light-matter interactions at the nanoscale has broad implications for many research areas, ranging from spectroscopy and sensing to communications and quantum information processing. In this presentation, I will discuss…
…is set to behave as a free relativistic quantum particle. This experiment demonstrates that a system acting as a quantum simulator may have completely different physical properties than the quantum…
Thomson Reuters published their 2015 list of Highly Cited Researchers. It includes 8 physicists at Harvard and MIT, three of which are CUA researchers (Misha Lukin, Martin Zwierlein, Wolfgang Ketterle)….
We study driven-dissipative dynamics of a network of spin-1/2 systems coupled to chiral 1D bosonic waveguides [1,2]. By chiral coupling we mean an asymmetric coupling of the spin decay to…
…It would allow the study of out-of-equilibrium dynamics, the spreading of correlations and the build-up of entanglement in many-particle fermionic quantum systems. It could perform quantum simulation of the Fermi-Hubbard…
We have recently achieved the first atomic Bose-Einstein condensate in an essentially uniform potential of an optical-box trap [1]. This opened new research possibilities, in particular for studies of the…
…this new platform, where experiments evolved from textbook like studies in conceptually simple settings towards precisely controlled studies in computationally inaccessible regimes. We discuss recent results on many-body localization in…
