SUMMARY:Ultracold Fermions for Quantum Simulation & Precision Measurements
DESCRIPTION:In the last decade studies of ultracold atoms in optical traps have advanced to the point where both bosonic and fermionic atoms are now available in optical lattices with single-site addressability.
These advances will lead to the next generation of experiments with ultracold quantum gases beyond studies of bulk properties and towards full control over the external and internal degrees of freedom of the
constituent atoms.
A key ingredient will be the precise control over the internal degrees of freedom achievable with bosonic and fermionic isotopes of two-electron atoms demonstrated first in the context of optical
lattice clocks.
The development of single-site addressable optical lattices under a quantum gas microscope has also advanced to the point where (besides bosonic 87-Rb) both alkali fermions (6-Li and 40-K) as well the
two-electron boson 174-Yb can be imaged with single-site submicron resolution.
Combining these two advances will lead to neutral atom many-body quantum systems whose internal and external degrees of freedom can be controlled with ion-trap-like quality.
These experiments will provide new opportunities for quantum engineering and quantum simulation of many-body systems at the single-particle level.
