Introduction
The study of ultracold atoms is one of the hottest topics in Physics today. This field is unique in the sense that it has great flexibility in experiments for studying a wide range of physical systems that are of great importance to many different fields. As a result, this field has been very fast growing, addressing a broad range of fundamental issues crucial in many other fields in physics, while at the same time shows great promise in technological applications. This series of Croucher Summer Course is designed to introduce both the fundamental knowledges and advanced topics in the current frontier of ultracold atom physics to a small group of talent postgraduate students and junior research fellows. Content of the first course, which will be held from May 9-13, 2016, includes strongly interacting fermion gases, multi-component ultracold atoms, spin-orbit coupling and related topics.
