New Quantum Phases of Matter MURI kickoff meeting

Our new MURI team — a collaborative effort connecting MIT, Harvard, U. Mass. Amherst, Strathclyde, Berkeley, Caltech, JILA and JQI — kicked off our program on the MIT campus. In this exciting research program, our team is focusing on three broad problems: understanding measurement in many-body atomic systems; engineering new Hamiltonians for interacting quantum gases; and from these tools generating new kinds of matter.
