Giulia Faraoni is currently doing her PhD degree in Florence (Italy) at the LENS institute. To gather additional experience and skills, she will work with us for a full year on the Erbium experiment on dipolar quantum droplets.
Welcome to our group!

Extended Bose-Hubbard Model
We have studied the extended Bose-Hubbard Model with dipolar Er atoms as well as how the superfluid-to-Mott-insulator transition is modified by the dipole-dipole interaction.
Daniel gets 2nd poster price at YAO2016
The Young Atom Opticians (YAO) conference is a yearly meeting, organized by and for PhD candidates in the field of atomic, molecular and optical physics. This year it took place in Munich (http://www.yao-conference.org/), and the 2017 edition will take place in Paris.
Lauriane becomes a Marie Curie fellow
Lauriane Chomaz has been awarded a Marie Curie Fellowships from the European Commission for her project “Dipphase”.
Quantum Chaos in Ultracold Collisions of Erbium
We have studied the scattering behavior of ultracold Er atoms and observed an enormous number of Fano-Feshbach scattering resonances.
Reaching Fermi Degeneracy via Universal Dipolar Scattering
We have reported on the creation of the first degenerate dipolar Fermi gas of erbium atoms.
