SUMMARY:The quantum playground: an ultracold atoms apparatus and the games 
 we can play - Lindsay LeBlanc (Alberta)
DESCRIPTION:Ultracold atoms provide a fantastic playground for manipulating
  and making use of the quantum nature of matter. In our lab\, we cool atom
 s down to a few nanokelvin\, where they are free from the randomness assoc
 iated with thermal motion and can fully embrace their quantumness. In one 
 of the games we play\, we use the atom’s quantized levels to store infor
 mation encoded in light\, to realize a “quantum memory” -- a key devic
 e for future quantum networks. In another\, we use various electromagnetic
  fields to implement a game of “dress-up\,” where the atoms take on th
 e character of generalized quantum systems and are free to mimic the behav
 iour of other many-particle quantum systems\, such as magnets or superflui
 ds. In all that we do\, we are keen to better understand\, from the ground
  up\, what makes these quantum particles behave as they do. We keep pursui
 ng this quantum world to find the techniques and technologies that could b
 ring the wealth of possibility from the quantum realm up to the human scal
 e.
