Abstract: Fishing for phases Ultracold atoms held in an optical lattice are an important system in which to study quantum phase transitions. However, the presence of multiple quantum phases within a single sample complicates the interpretation of bulk measurements. Nathan Gemelke et al. report a direct imaging method that enables a complete characterization of multiple phases in a strongly correlated Bose gas.
