Few-body correlations in many-particle quantum matter

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to develop theories of quantum matter by investigating the connection between microscopic few-particle correlations and macroscopic quantum phenomena. The growing class of strongly correlated quantum systems that defy a conventional explanation creates a pressing need for this approach. This project will use the clean and tuneable cold-atom system, where microscopic properties are precisely known, to directly verify new spectral techniques. A greater understanding of quantum correlations is expected to advance several fields including condensed matter physics, and could underpin quantum devices where energy can be efficiently stored and rapidly extracted.
