Fun with Fermions: Exploring and Manipulating a Fermi Gas of Atoms
Deborah Jin
JILA
University of Colorado
An ultracold gas of fermionic atoms provides a unique system in which to investigate fundamental quantum phenomena. In particular, current experiments are exploring the possibility of realizing a novel superfluid phase that is predicted for a Fermi gas of atoms. I will discuss recent experiments at JILA where we trap and cool fermionic potassium atoms in the quantum degenerate regime.
