Realization of a single Josephson junction for Bose-Einstein condensates
arXiv:cond-mat/0604348 · doi:10.1007/s00340-005-2059-z
Abstract
We report on the realization of a double-well potential for Rubidium-87 Bose-Einstein condensates. The experimental setup allows the investigation of two different dynamical phenomena known for this system - Josephson oscillations and self-trapping. We give a detailed discussion of the experimental setup and the methods used for calibrating the relevant parameters. We compare our experimental findings with the predictions of an extended two-mode model and find quantitative agreement.
