摘要
In 2002, an experiment with ultracold atoms emulated a textbook condensed-matter physics phenomenon: the phase transition from a superfluid to a Mott insulator. Two decades later, two of the researchers involved in that milestone experiment ponder how far quantum simulation with ultracold atoms has come.
