TY - BOOK AU - Lewenstein, Maciej AU - Sanpera, Anna AU - Ahufinger, VerĂ²nica TI - Ultracold atoms in optical lattices: : simulating quantum many-body systems SN - 9780199573127 PY - 2012/// CY - Oxford, U.K. PB - Oxford University Press N2 - This book provides a complete and comprehensive overview of ultracold lattice gases as quantum simulators. It opens up an interdisciplinary field involving atomic, molecular and optical physics, quantum optics, quantum information, condensed matter and high energy physics. The book includes some introductory chapters on basic concepts and methods, and then focuses on the physics of spinor, dipolar, disordered, and frustrated lattice gases. It reviews in detail the physics of artificial lattice gauge fields with ultracold gases. The last part of the book covers simulators of quantum computers.---Provided by publisher ER -
