Scientific News (2017)1 January 2018|ILP SengstockSymmetry-broken momentum distributions induced by matter-wave diffraction during time-of-flight expansion of ultracold atomsPhoto: AG SengstockWe study several effects which lead to symmetry-broken momentum distributions of quantum gases released from optical lattices. In particular, we...6 July 2017|ILP SengstockTime-reversal symmetry breaking in 1D superfluidsPhoto: AG SengstockWe found a superfluid which spontaneously breaks the time-reversal symmetry in one-dimensional optical lattices. This twisted superfluid is...
