From Few to Many. In our recent paper which was published in the current issue of Science 342, 457 (2013). Also available at arXiv:1307.3443. More information can be found in the press release (in English. From the University of Heidelberg. Furthermore, our publication is also discussed and explained for a broader audience, for instance in physicsworld. And in a science blog.

Paper on deterministic preparation of few fermion systems published. We sucessfully prepared a tunable quantum system consisting of one to ten fermions. We prepare such a system using ultracold Lithium atoms in a micrometer sized optical dipole trap. Due to Pauli's principle one quantum state in the trap is occupied with one atom per spin state (red and blue balls). By tilting the trap we can control the number of remaining quantum states and thus the number of particles. And there is also a press release.
