Observing Zitterbewegung in Ultracold Atoms
J. Y. Vaishnav, Charles W. Clark
We propose an optical lattice scheme which would permit the experimental observation of Zitterbewegung (ZB) with ultracold, neutral atoms. A four-level "tripod" variant of the usua…
Heteronuclear molecules in an optical dipole trap
J. J. Zirbel, K. -K. Ni, S. Ospelkaus +6
We report on the creation and characterization of heteronuclear KRb Feshbach molecules in an optical dipole trap. Starting from an ultracold gas mixture of K-40 and Rb-87 atoms, we…
Spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensates
Tudor Stanescu, Brandon Anderson, Victor Galitski
We consider a many-body system of pseudo-spin-1/2 bosons with spin-orbit interactions, which couple the momentum and the internal pseudo-spin degree of freedom created by spatially…
How to Enhance Dephasing Time in Superconducting Qubits
L. Cywinski, R. M. Lutchyn, C. P. Nave +1
We theoretically investigate the influence of designed pulse sequences in restoring quantum coherence lost due to background noise in superconducting qubits. We consider both 1/f n…
Two-Dimensional Electron Gas with Cold Atoms in Non-Abelian Gauge Potentials
Indubala I. Satija, Daniel C. Dakin, J. Y. Vaishnav +1
Motivated by the possibility of creating non-Abelian fields using cold atoms in optical lattices, we explore the richness and complexity of non-interacting two-dimensional electron…
Exploring an ultracold Fermi-Fermi mixture: Interspecies Feshbach resonances and scattering properties of 6Li and 40K
E. Wille, F. M. Spiegelhalder, G. Kerner +10
We report on the observation of Feshbach resonances in an ultracold mixture of two fermionic species, 6Li and 40K. The experimental data are interpreted using a simple asymptotic b…
