The Ni research group is working to create molecules at the lowest possible temperatures, and to study their chemical reactions and physical interactions.  At such ultra-cold temperatures, quantum mechanics describes all aspects of the molecules: their...

nteractions and correlations in condensed matter systems often manifest themselves in striking and novel properties of the materials. Many examples can be found among superconductors and superfluids, quantum magnets, integer and fractional quantum Hall...

John Doyle's research centers on using cold molecules for science ranging from bio-analysis to particle physics to quantum information. His group studies fundamental collisional processes in atoms and molecules and develop tools to achieve full quantum...

Mikhail Lukin received the Ph.D. degree from Texas A&M University in 1998. He has been a Professor of Physics at Harvard since 2004, where he is currently a co-Director of Harvard-MIT Center for Ultracold Atoms. His research interests include quantum...

Susanne Yelin's research interests are in theoretical quantum optics and quantum information science. Current research directions include quantum control of ultracold polar molecules, investigation of novel coherence-based optical elements, single-photon...

Markus Greiner's research is focused on experiments with ultracold atoms, in which strongly correlated many-body quantum systems can be experimentally realized in a well controlled way. This opens the door for studying fundamental questions of modern...
