The role of particle (in-)distinguishability for many-particle dynamics in optical lattices — •Tobias Brünner, Gabriel Dufour, Alberto Rodriguez, and Andreas Buchleitner — Physikalisches Institut, Universität Freiburg, Hermann-Herder-Str. 3, D-79104 Freiburg, Germany

Much attention has been dedicated so far to the dynamical impact of interactions - which often can be associated with the progressive suppression of coherence phenomena. On the other hand, little is known on the fundamental role of the interacting particles* degree of mutual (in-)distinguishability in such experiments, while we have learnt from a new generation of photonic interference experiments and theory that controlling the degree of (in-)distinguishability unveils a panoply of novel many-particle interference phenomena. We import this program into the realm of controlled, interacting many-particle quantum systems, specifically for cold atoms in optical lattices, and identify statistical, experimentally readily accessible quantifiers to infer the particles* degree of distinguishability.
