Understanding transport in strongly interacting systems remains one of the major challenges in quantum many-body physics. In this context, two-dimensional systems are particularly intriguing due to their strong quantum fluctuations and their approximate scale invariance. Here, we present measurements of the sound propagation in a strongly interacting 2D Fermi gas across the 2D BEC-BCS crossover. We excite particle currents by imprinting a phase step onto homogeneous Fermi gases trapped in a box potential and measure the resulting density oscillations. We extract the speed of sound across the BEC-BCS crossover and compare the resulting dynamic measurement of the compressibility equation of state to a static measurement based on recording density profiles as well as a QMC calculation and find reasonable agreement between all three. Finally, we also measure the damping of the sound mode and find a clear minimum in the strongly interacting regime in agreement with quantum limited transport.
