Temperature evolution of impurities in a quantum gas
October 14, 2020By
A new theoretical study advances our understanding of the role of thermodynamics in the ‘quantum impurity’ problem, which studies the behavior of deliberately introduced atoms (ie, ‘impurities’) that behave as particularly ‘clean’ quasiparticles within a background atomic gas, allowing a controllable ‘perfect test bed’ study of quantum correlations.
