Superfluidity in strongly correlated ultra-cold atomic Fermi gases

超冷原子是21世纪物理学中发展最快的领域之一。研究强相互作用费米气体的科学重要性从过去十年在与超冷原子相关的领域获得五项诺贝尔物理学奖的事实中可见一斑。澳大利亚目前正在这一新领域建立世界级研究的声誉，墨尔本正在进行新的超低温费米子实验。该项目将在该领域建立国家和国际合作，提供世界级的研究培训机会，并提升澳大利亚的领导地位。除了提高对科学的理解外，它还有可能在未来带来新的节能技术。

Ultra-cold atoms are one of the most rapidly developing areas in twenty-first century physics. The scientific importance of studying strongly interacting Fermi gases is indicated by the fact that five Nobel prizes in physics were awarded in fields relevant to ultra-cold atoms in the last decade. Australia is now developing a reputation for world-class research in this new area, with new ultra-cold fermion experiments now underway in Melbourne. This project will build national and international cooperation in this field, provide world-class research training opportunities and advance Australia's leadership position. As well as improving scientific understanding, it has the potential to lead to new energy-saving technologies in the future.
