The Wright Research group uses ultra-cold quantum gases to study quantum many-body phenomena.

Areas of interest include macroscopic quantum phenomena (superfluidity), non-equilibrium dynamics, and coherent light-matter interactions.

Lab Location: Wilder Basement, Rooms 17/18
The lab is only accessible through room 18, for safety reasons. Please ring the doorbell if you need to reach someone in the lab.

Mitigating Fermion Hole Heating

Posted on by

A preprint of our recent work investigating the interplay between heating of fermionic atoms and the extended geometry of a “dimple” trap is now available on the arXiv. This work is an important part of our efforts to achieve conditions needed to investigate unconventional superfluid phases in ultracold Fermi gases.
