Content, Learning Outcome and Preconditions

Content

Dieses Modul vertieft das Verständnis der ultrakalten Quantengase. Kollektiven Anregungen werden komplementiert durch die fundamentalen Anregungen der Bogoliubov-Theorie. Suprafluidität und quantisierte Wirbel werden vorgestellt. Die Interferenz zweier Bose-Einstein-Kondensate und spontane Symmetriebrechung werden diskutiert. Die Verwendung von Feshbach-Resonanzen in der Assoziation ultrakalter Moleküle und im BEC-BCS-Crossover wird dargestellt. Stark korrelierte Zustände in optischen Gittern werden präsentiert.

Learning Outcome

Nach erfolgreicher Teilnahme an diesem Modul ist der/die Studierende in der Lage 1) Anregungen in ultrakalten Gases zu analysieren 2) die Theorie der Suprafluidität und der quantisierten Wirbel anzuwenden 3) die Interferenz von Kondensaten zu bewerten 4) Stark korrelierte Zustände im BEC-BCS-Crossover und in optischen Gittern zu verstehen
