Uncovering the mechanisms behind unconventional superfluidity

Superfluids, which have zero viscosity and can therefore flow without any loss of kinetic energy, are some of the most surprising collective quantum phases of matter. Ultracold quantum gases offer a viable experimental approach to studying these phases, offering microscopic access to their exotic properties. The EU-funded SuperComp project will focus on quantum gases with competing interactions to observe unconventional superfluid phases that have not yet been experimentally realised. To this end, the project will investigate three distinct mechanisms resulting in unconventional superfluid behaviour: quantum ...
