Optical Kerr effect of liquid and supercooled water: the experimental and data analysis perspective
A. Taschin, P. Bartolini, R. Eramo +2
The time-resolved optical Kerr effect spectroscopy (OKE) is a powerful experimental tool enabling accurate investigations of the dynamic phenomena in molecular liquids. We introduc…
Water in a Polymeric Electrolyte Membrane: Sorption/Desorption and Freezing phenomena
Marie Plazanet, Francesco Sacchetti, Caterina Petrillo +3
Nafion is a perfluorosulfonated polymer, widely used in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells. This polymer adopts a complex structural organisation resulting from the microsegregati…
A comparative study on bulk and nanoconfined water by time-resolved optical Kerr effect spectroscopy
Andrea Taschin, Paolo Bartolini, Agnese Marcelli +2
The low frequency vibrational spectra of hydrated porous silica are specifically sensitive to the hydrogen bond interactions and provides a wealth of information on the structural…
Superradiant light scattering from a moving Bose-Einstein condensate
R. Bonifacio, F. S. Cataliotti, M. Cola +4
We investigate the interaction of a moving BEC with a far detuned laser beam. Superradiant Rayleigh scattering arises from the spontaneous formation of a matter-wave grating due to…
General features of the energy landscape in Lennard-Jones like model liquids
L. Angelani, G. Ruocco, M. Sampoli +1
Features of the energy landscape sampled by supercooled liquids are numerically analyzed for several Lennard-Jones like model systems. The properties of quasisaddles (minima of the…
Optically-induced lensing effect on a Bose-Einstein condensate expanding in a moving lattice
L. Fallani, F. S. Cataliotti, J. Catani +4
We report the experimental observation of a lensing effect on a Bose-Einstein condensate expanding in a moving 1D optical lattice. The effect of the periodic potential can be descr…
In-situ velocity imaging of ultracold atoms using slow--light
Maurizio Artoni, Iacopo Carusotto
The optical response of a moving medium suitably driven into a slow-light propagation regime strongly depends on its velocity. This effect can be used to devise a novel scheme for…
Fermi-Bose quantum degenerate ^40 K - ^87 Rb mixture with attractive interaction
G. Roati, F. Riboli, G. Modugno +1
We report on the achievement of simultaneous quantum degeneracy in a mixed gas of fermionic ^40 K and bosonic ^87 Rb. Potassium is cooled to 0.3 times the Fermi temperature by mean…
Dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate at finite temperature in an atomoptical coherence filter
F. Ferlaino, P. Maddaloni, S. Burger +4
The macroscopic coherent tunneling through the barriers of a periodic potential is used as an atomoptical filter to separate the condensate and the thermal components of a R…
Collisional properties of ultracold K-Rb mixtures
G. Ferrari, M. Inguscio, W. Jastrzebski +3
We determine the inter-species s-wave triplet scattering length a3 for all K-Rb isotopic mixtures by measuring the cross-section for collisions between 41K and 87Rb in different te…
Josephson Junction Arrays with Bose-Einstein Condensates
F. S. Cataliotti, S. Burger, C. Fort +5
We report on the direct observation of an oscillating atomic current in a one-dimensional array of Josephson junctions realized with an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. The array i…
Spatial interference of coherent atomic waves by manipulation of the internal quantum state
C. Fort, P. Maddaloni, F. Minardi +2
A trapped 87Rb Bose-Einstein condensate is initially put into a superposition of two internal states. Under the effect of gravity and by means of a second transition, we prepare tw…
