Control of atomic currents using a quantum stirring device
arXiv:0708.4304 · doi:10.1209/0295-5075/82/40006
Abstract
We propose a BEC stirring device which can be regarded as the incorporation of a quantum pump into a closed circuit: it produces a DC circulating current in response to a cyclic adiabatic change of two control parameters of an optical trap. We demonstrate the feasibility of this concept and point out that such device can be utilized in order to probe the interatomic interactions.
