Interferometry with ultracold atoms promises the possibility of ultraprecise and ultrasensitive measurements in many fields of physics, and is the basis of our most precise atomic clocks. Key to a high sensitivity is the possibility to…
We study the quantum phase diagrams of Bose-Fermi mixtures of ultracold atoms confined to one dimension in an optical lattice. For systems with incommensurate densities, various quantum phases, e.g. charge/spin density waves, pairing, phase…
We study interacting 1D two-component mixtures of cold atoms in a random potential, and extend the results reported earlier [{\it Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 105}, 115301 (2010)]. We construct the phase diagram of a disordered Bose-Fermi mixture…
Photon Bose-Einstein condensates are characterised by a quite weak interaction, so they behave nearly as an ideal Bose gas. Moreover, since the current experiments are conducted in a microcavity, the longitudinal motion is frozen out and…
We demonstrate that virtual excitations of higher radial modes in an atomic Bose gas in a tightly confining waveguide result in effective three-body collisions that violate integrability in this quasi-one-dimensional quantum system and give…
Two-component equal-mass Fermi gases, in which unlike atoms interact through a short-range two-body potential and like atoms do not interact, are stable even when the interspecies s-wave scattering length becomes infinitely large. Solving…
We propose a scheme to significantly enhance the sensitivity of atom-interferometry performed with Bose-Einstein condensates. When a two-photon Raman transition is used to split the condensate into two modes, some information about the…

Atom interferometry is a natural laboratory for precision tests of general relativity, but there is no simple relationship between atom interferometer phase and geometric properties of spacetime. Here we show that a different atom…
