Strongly interacting homogeneous Fermi gases in two and three dimensions

POSTER

Abstract

We create and study a homogeneous Fermi gas with strong interactions in uniform trapping potentials. Here we present three current research themes, and outlook for future experiments. We study the temperature dependence of spin impurities and observe a polaron to bare particle crossover, observe quantum limited sound attenuation by local density modulation, and present measurements of the temperature dependence of the contact. Furthermore, we detail progress on upgrading our apparatus for achieving a uniform 2d Fermi gas with strong interactions.
