In a joint work from the RARE and ERBIUM team as well as our theory collaborator from IQOQI, Rick van Bijnen, we have observed hallmarks of supersolidity in dipolar quantum gases of Erbium and Dysprosium. Our work is highlighted in a Viewpoint article in Physics by T. Donner.
Arno has been awarded the prestigious Lise-Meitner postdoctoral fellowship position from the FWF. This fellowship enables him to work on a new research project within the dipolar quantum gases group led by Francesca Ferlaino.
Alexandre de Martino, master student from the Institut d’Optique at Palaiseau, France, joins our group for five months to do his final master internship. He will focus on upgrading the transversal cooling scheme of our Erbium experiment.
Manfred has been awarded one of five ESQ Discovery projects, where the Erwin Schrödinger Center for Quantum Science & Technology supports radically new ideas, innovative research and high-risk projects, before they are sufficiently grown and competitive to succeed in established European or national funding schemes.
Benedict Hochreiter has joined the T-REQS team for his master thesis. He will concentrate on Rydberg physics in multi electron atoms.
Lauriane has been awarded the New Journal of Physics Early Career Award for 2018!
