Implementing quantum electrodynamics with ultracold atomic systems

We discuss the experimental engineering of model systems for the description of quantum electrodynamics (QED) in one spatial dimension via a mixture of bosonic ^23 Na and fermionic ^6 Li atoms. The local gauge symmetry is realized in an optical superlattice, using heteronuclear boson–fermion spin-ch...
