Now, with the implementation of evolution operators deriving from the generators of the SU(10) group, complete control over the quantum state of the nuclear spins is achievable. This is an opportunity to use the full Hilbert space of strontium 87 atoms in experiments and for quantum technologies, that we explore in our published paper. For example, we use it to measure simultaneously two non-commuting observables of pseudo-spin ensembles!

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! 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!
