Since the achievement of quantum degeneracy in gases of chromium atoms in 2004, the
experimental investigation of ultracold gases made of highly magnetic atoms has …

Can a gas behave like a crystal? Supersolidity is an intriguing and challenging state of
matter that combines key features of superfluids and crystals. Predicted a long time ago, its …

In contrast to light, matter-wave optics of quantum gases deals with interactions even in free
space and for ensembles comprising millions of atoms. We exploit these interactions in a …

This book is devoted to BEC as an interdisciplinary subject, covering atomic and molecular
physics, laser physics, low temperatures, and astrophysics, and it will serve as an in-depth …

The physics of quantum degenerate atomic Fermi gases in uniform as well as in
harmonically trapped configurations is reviewed from a theoretical perspective. Emphasis is …

We produce a quantum degenerate mixture composed by two Bose-Einstein condensates of
different atomic species, K 41 and R 87 b. We study the dynamics of the superfluid system in …

The nucleus is one of the most multifaceted many-body systems in the Universe. It exhibits a
multitude of responses depending on the way one “probes” it. With increasing technical …

This paper summarizes the experimental frontier of ultracold fermionic gases. It is based on
three lectures which one of the authors gave at the Varenna Summer School describing the …

The discovery of Bose–Einstein condensation (BEC) in trapped ultracold atomic gases in
1995 has led to an explosion of theoretical and experimental research on the properties of …

The early experiments on Bose–Einstein condensation in dilute atomic gases accomplished
three long-standing goals. First, cooling of neutral atoms into their motional ground state …
