Ultracold atoms in optical lattices represent an outstanding tool to create and study quantum many-body systems. Combining these lattice systems with the properties of alkaline-earth atoms like strontium gives rise to exciting phenomena such as cooperative effects in atom-photon scattering and exotic magnetic phases of the Fermi-Hubbard model.
To study these systems experimentally, we aim at the realization of a strontium quantum-gas microscope. We routinely generate Bose-Einstein condensates of strontium atoms, which we plan to load into an optical lattice, operating at a magic wavelength. An imaging setup involving a high-NA objective will allow us to image with single-atom and single-site resolution, enabling the detection of density as well as spin correlations in the prepared many-body states.
