In recent years, progress has been made towards using cold atomic gases to study the role of disorder in many-body systems. This line of research might offer the key to solving open questions in solid-state physics, but should also provide a new outlook on disordered systems in its own right.

• Cooling in strongly correlated optical lattices: prospects and challenges (2010, methodology): “Adding disorder to bosonic particles in an optical lattice is a method for studying the disordered Bose–Hubbard (DBH) model [9, 37, 38], which has been used as a paradigm for granular superconductors and superfluids in porous media.”
• Localization of preformed Cooper pairs in disordered superconductors (2010, background): “Understanding how the disorder drives this transition is important for many quantum systems such as amorphous superconductors [1], superconducting nanowires [2], high critical-temperatures superconductors [3] and ultra-cold atomic gases [4].”
• Quantum simulation of the Hubbard model with ultracold fermions in optical lattices (2018, unknown): “Finally, other promising directions for future research include the study of out-of-equilibrium dynamics in this system [174,111,175,176], and the interplay of strong correlations with disorder [81,177,178] and topology [179–182].”
