Laser cooling and trapping of metastable helium: towards Bose–Einstein condensation
Metastable triplet helium is an interesting atom, next to the alkalis and atomic hydrogen, to pursue Bose–Einstein condensation. In this paper an overview of the relevant physics of triplet helium and experimental progress in Amsterdam towards reaching Bose– Einstein condensation is described. 2001 Académie des sciences/Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS cold atoms / metastable ...
متن کاملEfficiently computing vortex lattices in fast rotating Bose-Einstein condensates
We propose an efficient and spectrally accurate numerical method for computing vortex lattice structures in fast rotating Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) with strongly repulsive interactions. The key ingredients of the method is to discretize the normalized gradient flow under rotational frame by Fourier spectral method in space and by backward Euler method in time. Different vortex lattice st...
متن کاملQuasi 2D Bose-Einstein condensation in an optical lattice
We study the phase transition of a gas of Rb atoms to quantum degeneracy in the combined potential of a harmonically confining magnetic trap and the periodic potential of an optical lattice. For high optical lattice potentials we observe a significant change in the temperature dependency of the population of the ground state of the system. The experimental results are explained by the subsequen...

— In this lecture we give an overview on current experiments on Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in a one-dimensional (1D) optical lattice. We introduce measurements of ground state, tunnelling and dynamical properties as well as investigations of atom optical applications and thermodynamical properties. Measurements of the coherent atomic current in an array of Josephson junctions and the crit...
متن کاملInteraction of matter-wave gap solitons in optical lattices
We study the mobility and interaction of gap solitons in a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) confined by an optical lattice potential. Such localized wavepackets can exist only in the gaps of the matter-wave band-gap spectrum and their interaction properties are shown to serve as a measure of the discreteness imposed on a BEC by the lattice potential. We show that inelastic collisions of two weakl...
