In this work we report, for the first time, on the realization of 1D strongly-correlated liquids of ultracold fermions interacting repulsively within SU(N) symmetry, with a tunable number N of spin components. We observe that static and dynamic properties of the system strongly deviate from those of ideal fermions and, for N > 2, from those of a two-component Luttinger liquid. In particular, we have observed that, in the large-N limit, the system exhibits properties of a bosonic spinless liquid, as predicted by Nobel prize winner C. N. Yang and never observed before.

Abstract

In this work we report, for the first time, on the realization of 1D strongly-correlated liquids of ultracold fermions interacting repulsively within SU(N) symmetry, with a tunable number N of spin components. We observe that static and dynamic properties of the system strongly deviate from those of ideal fermions and, for N > 2, from those of a two-component Luttinger liquid. In particular, we have observed that, in the large-N limit, the system exhibits properties of a bosonic spinless liquid, as predicted by Nobel prize winner C. N. Yang and never observed before.
