Dr Rob Smith is an experimental physicist at Oxford whose work focuses on ultracold atomic gases and many-body quantum phenomena. He leads a group building an erbium (highly magnetic atom) cold-atom experiment to explore effects of long-range dipole-dipole interactions in both equilibrium and non-equilibrium regimes. His research explores phenomena such as supersolidity, turbulence in quantum fluids, impurity physics, and open quantum systems. In recent work, his group has experimentally measured the interaction-induced shift of the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature in dipolar gases.
