Hi, I am Hao Fu. I am currently a graduate student in physics at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. My advisor is Professor P. R. Berman. I will finish my Ph. D. in theoretical AMO physics in 2007. You can reach me by

B. S. in physics, University of Science and Technology of China 1997-2002
I am currently working on the following projects:
- Single atom processes in a dielectric medium
Excited atoms decay by radiating photons. Even though this is intrinsically a single atom process, the environment can significantly modify it. Microscopically, the radiated photon can be scattered by the medium atoms and be reabsorbed by the decaying atom. Such events give corrections to the decay rate as well as recoil momentum of the radiation atom.

- Many body effects of ultra cold atom gases
Exciting experimental progresses in atomic gases have been made in last decade. This area of research is extremely fruitful since it connects many different branches of physics. I am particularly interested in studying some of the possible connections between AMO and condensed matter physics.
