SUMMARY:Quantum simulation with ultracold atoms - Rob Smith\, AMOP Group\,
  Cavendish Laboratory
DTSTART:20130509T150000Z

CONTACT:Stephen Walley
DESCRIPTION:The field of ultracold atoms has grown rapidly over the last t
 wo decades since the achievement of Bose Einstein condensation in 1995.  I
  will give an brief introduction to ultracold atoms and how they can be us
 ed to study many-body condensed-matter physics problems. I will  use three
  specific projects to illustrate this. (1) The shift of the Bose-Einstein 
 transition temperature due to interactions. (2) The study of a non-equilib
 rium superheated Bose-Einstein condensate. (3) The first realisation of a 
 homogeneous trap for ultracold atoms.
