The rapidly developing topic of ultracold atoms has many actual
and potential applications for condensed-matter science, and the
contributions to this book emphasize these connections.
Ultracold Bose and Fermi quantum gases are introduced at a level
appropriate for first-year graduate students and non-specialists
such as more mature general physicists. The reader will find
answers to questions like: how are experiments conducted and how
are the results interpreted? What are the advantages and
limitations of ultracold atoms in studying many-body physics? How
do experiments on ultracold atoms facilitate novel scientific
opportunities relevant to the condensed-matted community?
This volume seeks to be comprehensible rather than
comprehensive; it aims at the level of a colloquium, accessible to
outside readers, containing only minimal equations and limited
references. In large part, it relies on many beautiful experiments
from the past fifteen years and their very fruitful interplay with
basic theoretical ideas. In this particular context, phenomena most
relevant to condensed-matter science have been emphasized.
