Funded Activity Summary

Emergent quantum phenomena in ultracold matter with artificial gauge fields. Gauge fields are central in our modern understanding of physics. They are at the origin of many sophisticated states of matter including quantum Hall materials, topological insulators and supersolids that have potential applications in future technologies. This project aims to explore these exotic quantum states emerging in ultracold atomic gases with artificially engineered gauge fields. Unlike the solid-state systems, in which all details of the material structure are not controlled or even not known with certainty, the unprecedented controllability of the ultracold system provides a unique opportunity to gain key insights on the physics related to the gauge fields, and to advance the studies in both fundamental physics and applications.
