Our group explores theoretically atomic. molecular, and optical physics in a variety of systems. We are especially interested in their behavior under extreme conditions, such as in ultracold atomic and molecular gases. Our goal is to investigate interactions among atoms, molecules, and ions, and to use this knowledge to gain a better understanding of fundamental processes, notably entanglement and many-body aspects of mesoscopic systems. We also study the interaction of electromagnetic fields, such as laser light, with such systems.

These web pages give an introduction into our research projects and our group. We regularly offer positions at all levels, from undergraduate students to graduate students, to postdoctoral researchers. If you want to join our group, or for further information, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.

Our group is part of the European network "Cold Molecules: Formation, Trapping and Dynamics" and part of our activities is funded by the National Science Foundation , the UConn Research Foundation, and the Research Corporation.
