Kibble-Zurek mechanism in the self-organization of a cold atomic cloud

Guillaume Labeyrie, Robin Kaiser

When applying two counter-propagating laser beams to a cold cloud of Rubidium atoms, we observe the spontaneous formation of intensity patterns associated with a spatial structurat…

Analysis of pattern forming instabilities in an ensemble of two-level atoms optically excited by counter-propagating fields

W. J. Firth, I. Krešić, G. Labeyrie +3

We explore various models for the pattern forming instability in a laser-driven cloud of cold two-level atoms with a plane feedback mirror. Focus is on the combined treatment of no…

Bimodal momentum distribution of laser-cooled atoms in optical lattices

Claude M. Dion, Svante Jonsell, Anders Kastberg +1

We study, numerically and experimentally, the momentum distribution of atoms cooled in optical lattices. Using semi-classical simulations, we show that this distribution is bimodal…

Collective atomic scattering and motional effects in a dense coherent medium

Sarah L. Bromley, Bihui Zhu, Michael Bishof +9

We investigate collective emission from coherently driven ultracold Sr atoms. We perform two sets of experiments, using a strong and weak transition that are insensitive…

Temporal intensity correlation of light scattered by a hot atomic vapor

A. Dussaux, T. Passerat de Silans, W. Guerin +4

We present temporal intensity correlation measurements of light scattered by a hot atomic vapor. Clear evidence of photon bunching is shown at very short time-scales (nanoseconds)…
