Yesterday, we had the pleasure to host our colleagues from CNR-Nanotec in #Lecce for this fantastic workshop on #Quantum Fluids of Light and Matter!
We hope this will start a fruitful scientific discussion merging the worlds of #photons and #atoms at the quantum scale ❄️⚛️🔦

@cnr-ino.bsky.social

Nice work! 🙌

Celebrating the International Year of Quantum Science and Technologies, #Rai featured @cnr-ino.bsky.social researchers, including our #Li team! They realized an atomic #YQST2025 logo to wish you a happy #Quantum year!

Super proud of ours Giulio and Nicolò receiving this NQSTI prize!

Here's the paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41... a collaboration with many colleagues from University of Florence @cnr-ino.bsky.social and @lensqgases.bsky.social

Many researchers at LENS are making impactful contributions to the NQSTI project, working across atomic, photonic, and ion platforms, as well as in quantum optics and quantum information.

Here's a picture from the NQSTI congress in Rome!

Here's a bunch of single strontium atoms trapped in tweezers! Every shot in the video shows the fluorescence of atoms with 40% single-atom occupancy, a key step toward defect-free arrays for #Quantum simulations!

This work featured our former PhD student G. Biagioni, now spending his postdoc in France. Can't wait to learn more about that!

🌟 Happy New Year from all of us! 🌟
Here’s to a year full of smiles, adventures, and mind-blowing #quantum breakthroughs! 🚀
Let’s make this year extraordinary!

How many atoms make up a snowflake? ❄️

Our colleagues at Lithium Lab realized this animated Christmas card at the #quantum level with their unitary fermi gas (details in the replies)!
We join them in wishing everybody a nice holiday 🍾

Next week we'll have the pleasure to host Emanuele Distante from @icfonians.bsky.social for the first seminar of the FILM: FIrenze Light-Matter series!

Emanuele will present the talk "Quantum network with neutral atom arrays coupled to an optical cavity".

#QuantumSky #Atoms

P. Lombardi and @parsek-17.bsky.social at CNR-INO symposium presenting a perspective on the new dysprosium experiment ongoing IN #Florence 🙌

Tomorrow the annual CNR-INO symposium will take place in #Florence! Many researcher from LENS will join the conversation with contributions ranging from ultracold quantum gases to photonics.
Let's shape the future of #optics together!🔎

Later today we'll host the seminar by Alberto Biella from Pitaevskii BEC Center, CNR-INO and Università di Trento
"Experiments on waveguide QED with nanofibers"

Thanks to LENS, Unifi Fisica and Luca Celardo for organizing this seminar.

Indeed!!

A new preprint out for our #Yb team "Measuring Hall voltage and Hall resistance in an atom-based quantum simulator" 🙌
Well done to @leonardofallani.bsky.social and coworkers!

Yesterday our team member Carlo Gabbanini presented a poster about our recent work on repulsive potentials in dipolar gases and #supersolids

Check it out 👉 journals.aps.org/pra/abstract...

And the last day of #EQTC2024 kicks in with Morgan Mitchell talk "Space, time, and temperature - new considerations in quantum sensing of fields"

#Lisbon #Quantum

Supersolids Shown to Host Vortices The experimental confirmation of supersolid vortices opens the prospect of making and studying laboratory analogues of rotating neutron stars.

Supersolids are a form of superfluid in which the density takes on a periodic pattern of high and low regions. Now researchers have demonstrated that supersolids, like superfluids, host tiny quantized swirls when rotated.

Our PhD student Niccolò Preti has been awarded the Sara Lapi prize for his thesis "Towards dipolar quantum gases in a ring" 👏 congrats!
