SUMMARY:Dipolar quantum matter near absolute zero temperature - Francesca 
 Ferlaino (IQOQI Innsbruck)

DESCRIPTION:With the tremendous advances in cooling and manipulation techn
 iques\, ultracold atomic gases have consolidated themselves as an ideal sy
 stem to address fundamental questions in quantum few- and many-body physic
 s. Recently\, we have reached Bose-Einstein condensation and Fermi degener
 acy with ultracold Erbium atoms. This “exotic” atomic species combines
  unusually rich atomic spectra and a large magnetic moment.\nIn the quantu
 m regime\, bosonic Er atoms feature interactions of genuinely different na
 ture. The more ordinary and magnetically-tunable contact interaction combi
 nes with the long-range and anisotropic magnetic dipolar interaction. The 
 mere existence and competition between these two sources of interactions d
 ictate the physics at play\, disclosing a variety of intriguing quantum ph
 ases.\nThis talk will provide an overview of some fascinating dipolar phen
 omena from the Innsbruck prospective.\n
