• Abstract: We demonstrate a key ingredient in a 'bottom-up' approach to building complex quantum matter using thermal atomic vapors. We have isolated and tracked very slowly moving individual atoms without the aid of laser cooling. Passive filtering enabled us to carefully select atoms whose three-dimensional velocity vector has a magnitude below $\bar{v}/20$, where $\bar{v}$ is the mean velocity of the ensemble. Using a novel photon correlation technique, we could follow the three-dimensional trajectory of single, slowly moving atoms for $> 1\mu$s within a $25\mu$m field of view, with no obvious limit to the tracking ability while simultaneously observing Rabi oscillations of these single emitters. Our results demonstrate the power and scalability of thermal ensembles for utilization in quantum memories, imaging, and other quantum information applications through bottom-up approaches.

  Cavity quantum electrodynamics (cavity QED) enables the control of light-matter interactions at the single-photon level. We propose a cavity QED architecture based on atoms trapped in free space. We show that a pair of two-dimensional, ordered arrays of atoms can be described by conventional cavity QED parameters.

  We show how to harness scalable entanglement in an optical transition using 1D chains of up to 51 ions with state-dependent interactions that decay as a power-law function of the ion separation. We demonstrate this in a Ramsey-type interferometer, where we reduce the measurement uncertainty by $-3.2 pm 0.5$ dB below the standard quantum limit for N = 51 ions.

  We investigate the production of all-optical $39$K Bose-Einstein condensates with different scattering lengths using a Feshbach resonance near $33$ G. We are able to produce fully condensed ensembles with $5.8times104$ atoms within $850$ ms evaporation time at a scattering length of $232. Based on our findings we describe routes towards high-flux sources of ultra-cold potassium for inertial sensing.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.

  We propose an analog simulator for discrete 2D quantum chemistry models based on cold atoms in optical lattices. We first analyze how to simulate simple models, like the discrete versions of H and H$+$, using a single fermionic atom. We then show that a single bosonic atom can mediate an effective Coulomb repulsion between two fermions, leading to the analog of molecular Hydrogen in two dimensions.
