We proposed a formally exact, probabilistic method to assess the validity of the Thomas-Fermi potential for three-dimensional condensed matter systems where electron dynamics is constrained to the Fermi surface. Our method, which relies on…
Conformal dynamics can appear in quantum gases when the interactions are fine tuned to be scale symmetric. One well-known example of such a system is a three-dimensional Fermi gas at a Feshbach resonance. In this letter, we illustrate how…
We propose two interferometric schemes to experimentally detect the onset of pair condensation in a two spin-component Fermi gas. Two atomic wave-packets are coherently extracted from the gas at different positions and are mixed by a…
We study several effects which lead to symmetry-broken momentum distributions of quantum gases released from optical lattices. In particular, we demonstrate that interaction within the first milliseconds of the time-of-flight expansion can…
The momentum distribution of an expanding cloud of one-dimensional hard-core anyons is studied by an exact numerical approach, and shown to become indistinguishable from that of a non-interacting spin-polarized Fermi gas for large enough…
One-dimensional spinor gases with strong delta interaction fermionize and form a spin chain. The spatial degrees of freedom of this atom chain can be described by a mapping to spinless noninteracting fermions and the spin degrees of freedom…

The collapses and revivals of a coherent matter wave field of interacting particles can serve as a sensitive interferometric probe of the interactions and the number statistics of the underlying quantum field. Here we show how the ability…
Quantum-degenerate Fermi gases provide a remarkable opportunity to study strongly interacting fermions. In contrast to other Fermi systems, such as superconductors, neutron stars or the quark-gluon plasma, these gases have low densities and…
We measure the free decay of a spatially periodic density profile in a normal fluid strongly interacting Fermi gas, which is confined in a box potential. This spatial profile is initially created in thermal equilibrium by a perturbing…
We investigate a two-species Fermi gas in which one species is confined in a two-dimensional plane (2D) or one-dimensional line (1D) while the other is free in the three-dimensional space (3D). We discuss the realization of such a system…
A strongly-attractive, two-component Fermi gas of atoms exhibits universal behavior and should be mechanically stable as a consequence of the quantum mechanical requirement of unitarity. This requirement limits the maximum attractive force…
We propose new multi-dimensional atom optics that can create coherent superpositions of atomic wavepackets along three spatial directions. These tools can be used to generate light-pulse atom interferometers that are simultaneously…
The synthetic spin-orbit coupled quantum gases is widely studied both experimentally and theoretically in recent years. As previous studies show, this modification of single-body dispersion will in general couple different partial waves and…
