…an atomic Fermi gas, a highly controllable form of quantum degenerate matter. We reveal the spin-orbit gap via spin-injection spectroscopy, which characterizes the energy-momentum dispersion and spin composition of the…
The Quantum Gas Microscope enables high fidelity detection of single atoms in a Hubbard-regime optical lattice, bringing ultracold atom research to a new, microscopic level. We investigate the Bose-Hubbard model…
In this talk, I will present a pedagogical introduction to quantum chemistry and summarize some important open questions in the field. I will also make connections between quantum chemistry and…
…previously hosting the Virtual Journal, and currently most visibly through MIT’s Open Course Ware. The CUA has also run the TOPS program for many years, which served to invigorate physics…
The CUA regularly both runs and participates in outside events aimed at a K-12 audience. The majority of these events are open to all students, and aimed at local, Boston-area…
Simple molecules at ultracold temperatures, combined with high-resolution optical spectroscopy, open the door to molecular and fundamental science that is hard to access with other physical systems. In this talk,…
Extended atomic superfluids in the presence of a coherent coupling between two internal states represent a flexible platform to address open problems in condensed matter and fundamental physics. I will…
Simple molecules at ultracold temperatures, combined with high-resolution optical spectroscopy, open the door to molecular and fundamental science that is hard to access with other physical systems. In this talk,…
…cascade driven by the evaporative heating of vortices, leading to steady-state configurations characterized by negative absolute temperatures. Our results open a pathway for quantitative studies of emergent structures in interacting…
