Project C2 Thorge Kock, Institute of Laser PhysicsThe effect of quantum degeneracies can yield dramatic consequences in quantum many body systems, since tiny energy scales can decide, which quantum superposition state is actually realized in a system. The determination of this state requires phase information, which is often difficult to obtain in electronic condensed matter. In contrast, ultracold atomic gases provide a straight-forward technique to study phase coherence by matterwave interference.
