ULTRA COLD STRONTIUM ATOMS
IN BIRMINGHAM
Dr Shengnan Zhang
Research Fellow
Dr Shengnan Zhang is leading the long range interaction project of the group. He joined the research group in September 2018. His research interests are focused on the strongly correlated many-body physics and Bose Einstein condensation. Currently, he is working on the experiment of long range interaction of 3P0-3D1 of cold Sr atoms confined in the optical lattice in Mott insulator.
