Ultracold Atomic Gases in Artificial Magnetic Fields (PhD thesis)

Klaus Osterloh

A phenomenon can hardly be found that accompanied physical paradigms and theoretical concepts in a more reflecting way than magnetism. From the beginnings of metaphysics and the fi…

Strongly Correlated States of Ultracold Rotating Dipolar Fermi Gases

Klaus Osterloh, Nuria Barberán, Maciej Lewenstein

We study strongly correlated ground and excited states of rotating quasi-2D Fermi gases constituted of a small number of dipole-dipole interacting particles with dipole moments pol…

Symmetry breaking in small rotating cloud of trapped ultracold Bose atoms

D. Dagnino, N. Barberán, M. Lewenstein +2

We study the signatures of rotational and phase symmetry breaking in small rotating clouds of trapped ultracold Bose atoms by looking at rigorously defined condensate wave function…

Travelling to exotic places with ultracold atoms

M. Lewenstein, A. Kubasiak, J. Larson +4

We review and speculate on two recent developments of quantum optics and ultracold atoms. First, we discuss a possible realization of "phonon" physics, or as we call it "refracton"…

Ordered structures in rotating ultracold Bose gases

N. Barberan, M. Lewenstein, K. Osterloh +1

The characterization of small samples of cold bosonic atoms in rotating microtraps has recently attracted increasing interest due to the possibility to deal with a few number of pa…

Cold atoms in non-Abelian gauge potentials: From the Hofstadter "moth" to lattice gauge theory

K. Osterloh, M. Baig, L. Santos +2

We demonstrate how to create artificial external non-Abelian gauge potentials acting on cold atoms in optical lattices. The method employs internal states of atoms and laser as…
