Precision laser spectroscopy of antiprotonic and pionic atoms (SPECAP)

Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2018,

"This proposal has two objectives. First, I propose to measure the antiproton mass relative to the electron mass with a fractional precision of 0.1 ppb by carrying out sub-Doppler two-photon laser spectroscopy of antiprotonic helium atoms. The antiproton mass would then be better known than the proton mass. The (anti)proton-to-electron mass ratio is regarded as a one of several fundamental physica ...

High-Pressure High-Temperature Superconductivity (HPSuper)

Start date: Feb 1, 2017, End date: Jan 31, 2022,

Superconductors promote electrical currents without loss and are exploited for applications like magnets in medical imaging. Further applications like large scale usage in electrical power generation and transmission, however, are limited by the need to cool materials below a critical temperature Tc. Thus, novel superconductors with higher Tc are highly desirable.High Tc has been predicted almost ...

Unconventional pairing in ultracold Fermi gases (UpFermi)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2019,

We explore unconventional ways how ultracold fermions pair and form collective quantum phases exhibiting long-range order, such as superfluidity and magnetically order. Specifically, we plan to realize and study pairing with orbital angular momentum and pairing induced by long-range interaction. Besides the fundamental interest in unravelling unconventional pairing mechanisms and the interplay bet ...

Ultracold quantum gases have triggered great interest for their possibilities of simulating quantum matter. Thanks to the high tunability of these systems, direct signatures of fundamental phenomena in solid-state physics have in particular become accessible.

Electrons in a magnetic field experience a drift transverse to their velocity, which gives rise to intriguing effects such as the whole family of Hall Effects. Interestingly, this drift can also appear without a charged particle and without magnetic field, i.e. for ultra-cold quantum gases in optical lattices with non-trivial topology, described by a Berry curvature. This enables researchers to us ...

Interactions between polarons in polarized Fermi gases (Interpol)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

In this application, we propose to study the physics of the polaronic gas. In a spin imbalanced Fermi gas, that is with a larger number of spin up particles than with spin down, the usual Cooper pairing scenario no longer applies, and this raises the question of the possible phases of the system. It was recently proposed by C. Lobo et. al. [PRL 97, 200403 (2006)], that in the strong imbalanced reg ...
