Quantum Gas Microscopy of Fermions in the Continuum

ORAL  · Invited

Abstract

Quantum gas microscopy enables the probing of dilute quantum matter with single-atom resolution. Initially developed to study lattice and spin chain systems—most notably the Hubbard model and its generalizations—this technique has recently been extended to continuum systems. In this talk, I will introduce the tools we have developed and present recent results on strongly interacting Fermi gases, where we achieve direct access to spatial density and spin correlations. These capabilities provide a new window into the microscopic structure of these strongly correlated systems at previously inaccessible resolution.
