Detecting correlated quantum phases in ultracold atoms — •Michael Köhl1, Corinna Kollath2, and Thierry Giamarchi2 — 1Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 0HE, United Kingdom — 2DPMC-MaNEP, University of Geneva, 24 Quai Ernest-Ansermet, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland
Cold atomic systems provide a unique setup to explore the properties of strongly correlated quantum particles. However, despite the high degree of tunability and control offered by these systems, they are difficult to probe, making the identification of the exotic quantum phases extremely involved. Here we propose a novel experimental probe, using the coherent coupling of a single particle to the system.
