Ultra-cold atoms are one of the most rapidly developing areas in twenty-first century physics. The scientific importance of studying strongly interacting Fermi gases is indicated by the fact that five Nobel prizes in physics have been awarded in fields relevant to ultra-cold atoms in the last decade. Australia is now developing a reputation for world-class research in this new area, with new cold-fermion experiments now underway in Melbourne. This project will build national and international cooperation in this field, provide world-class research training opportunities and advance Australia's leadership position. As well as improving scientific understanding, it has the potential to lead to new energy-saving technologies in future.

超冷原子是二十一世纪物理学中发展最快的领域之一。过去十年中，与超冷原子相关的领域已颁发了五项诺贝尔物理学奖，这一事实表明了研究强相互作用费米气体的科学重要性。澳大利亚目前正在这一新领域建立世界级研究的声誉，新的冷费米子实验目前正在墨尔本进行。该项目将在该领域建立国内和国际合作，提供世界一流的研究培训机会并提升澳大利亚的领导地位。除了提高科学认识外，它还有可能在未来催生新的节能技术。
