Professor Bryce Gadway is the head of the Gadway Lab at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Professor Gadway and his group perform experiments on ultracold atomic quantum gases, in particular relating to quantum simulation. He recently published a Topical Review in JPhysB on Strongly interacting ultracold polar molecules, and we took some time to talk to him about his research and the field of AMO physics.

Butterfly in the Quantum World
To celebrate the release of ‘Butterfly in the Quantum World’ we spoke to Indu Satija on why the Hofstadter butterfly is so important and her experiences of writing the book.
