Abstract:It is well established that the noise correlations measured by time-of-flight imaging in cold-atom experiments, which correspond to the density-density correlations in the momentum space of trapped atomic gases, can probe the spin structure factor deep in the Mott-insulating regime of SU(2) Hubbard models. We explicitly derive the mathematical relation between the noise correlations and the spin structure factor in the strong-interaction limit of SU(N ) Hubbard models at any integer filling ρ. By calculating t… Show more
