Strongly correlated systems of ultracold atoms shouldalso be useful for applications in quantum information, high precision spectroscopy, metrology
By studying strongly interacting systems of cold atoms we expect to get insights into the mysterious properties of novel quantum materials: Quantum Simulators
BUTStrongly interacting systems of ultracold atoms and photons: are NOT direct analogues of condensed matter systemsThese are independent physical systems with their own “personalities”, physical properties, and theoretical challenges

Magnetic trapping of alkali atoms
Magnetic trapping of neutral atoms is due to the Zeeman effect.The energy of an atomic state depends on the magnetic field.In an inhomogeneous field an atom experiences a spatially varying potential.
Example:
Potential:Magnetic trapping is limited by the requirement that the trapped atoms remain
in weak field seeking states. For 23Na and 87Rb there are three states

- spin operators for F=1
Total Fz is conserved so linear Zeeman term should (usually)
be understood as Lagrange multiplier that controls Fz.
Quadratic Zeeman effect causes the energy of mF=0
state to be lower than the energy of mF=-1,+1 states.
The antiferromagnetic interaction (g2>0) favors the nematic
(polar) state (mF=0 and its rotations). The ferromagnetic
interaction (g2<0) favors spin polarized state (mF=+1) and
its rotations).

Interlayer coherence in bilayer quantum Hall systems at =1
Hartree-Fock predicts roton softeningand transition into a state with both interlayer coherence and stripe order. Transport experiments suggest first order transition into a compressible state.

Optical lattice
The simplest possible periodic optical potential is formedby overlapping two counter-propagating beams. This resultsin a standing wave
Averaging over fast optical oscillations (AC Stark effect) gives
Combining three perpendicular sets of standing waves we get a simple cubic lattice
This potential allows separation of variables

State dependent optical latticesHow to use selection rules for optical transitions to make different lattice potentials for different internal states.
Fine structure for 23Na and 87Rb
The right circularly polarized light couples to two
excited levels P1/2 and P3/2. AC Stark effects have opposite signs and cancel
each other for the appropriate frequency. At this frequency AC Stark effect for the state comes only from polarized light and gives the potential .
Analogously state will only be affected by , which gives the potential .
Decomposing hyperfine states we find
