Ultrafast dynamics of strongly correlated fermions - a Nonequilibrium Green functions approach

Motivated by exapnsion dynamics experiments with ultracold fermionic atoms in optical lattices we have developed computer simulations which I will present. They are based on Keldysh Green functions [1]. Strong correlations are describe using T-matrix selfenergies [2]. We are now able to treat more than 100 fermions in any dimension and investigate both the short-time and long-time behavior exactly. Extrapolation to the macroscopic limit allows to compare to the experimental results and reveals a surprisingly good agreement.
