Dynamics and Thermodynamics in Mixed Dimensions (ThermoDynaMix)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

In ThermoDynamix, we explore experimentally and theoretically the physics of ultracold mixtures of particles evolving in a different number of dimensions. We will realize experimentally a mixed-dimensional system by laser trapping an ultracold mixture of fermionic 6Li and 40K atoms. By tuning the wavelength of the trapping laser, we will create a potential that will almost not affect Lithium, and at the same time will confine strongly the Potassium atoms in one, two or three dimensions to freeze their motion along these directions. Experimental investigations will be supplemented by a comprehensive theoretical study of the system, using both analytical and numerical tools, in particular Diagrammatic Quantum Monte-Carlo simulations.
