Vacuum chamber assembly
The superradiant laser optical cavity spacer has been made and polished by the laboratory optician Thierry Billeton. Furthermore, the vacuum system is now assembled, but for the cavity.

Coherent control of the SU(10) spin
We have achieved coherent control of the SU(10) spin, with the implementation of adiabatic transfer between selected spin states in the degenerate gas. This puts us one step closer to exploring the emergence of correlations in our system, following the ideas developed in our collaboration with T. Roscilde and his team.

First experimental results using the degenerate Fermi gas
First experimental results using the degenerate Fermi gas! We used spin-orbit coupling to selectively manipulate and probe up to four selected spin states at once. We also present our new quantum gas machine setup, down to T/Tf ~ 0.2. Check it out here!
Magnetic Atoms Quantum Simulators / QUANTERA CONSORTIUM MAQS
We propose to realize a novel quantum simulator made of magnetic atoms in periodic potentials, which will enable the investigation of quantum-many body problems associated with long-range dipole-dipole interactions.
