Transport phenomena in dilute quantum gases

Shi-Zhong Zhang*

Transport measurement is one of the most important ways to study the properties of matter. In this article, we discuss recent experiments in ultracold atomic gases where the analog of Landauer transport in mesoscopic devices is realized and spin dynamics in a strongly interacting Fermi gas is probed. In the latter case, we pay special attention to the peculiarity of spin dynamics due to identical spin rotation effect which leads to a novel form of spin diffusion current. This modifies the usual diffusion equation into a more complicated form and leads to important consequence for, in particular, transverse spin diffusion in ultracold Fermi gases.
