Squeezing on momentum states for atom interferometry
Leonardo Salvi, Nicola Poli, Vladan Vuletic +1
We propose and analyse a method that allows for the production of squeezed states of the atomic center-of-mass motion that can be injected into an atom interferometer. Our scheme e…
Multislip Friction with a Single Ion
Ian Counts, Dorian Gangloff, Alexei Bylinskii +3
A trapped ion transported along a periodic potential is studied as a paradigmatic nanocontact frictional interface. The combination of the periodic corrugation potential and a harm…
Creation of a Bose-condensed gas of rubidium 87 by laser cooling
Jiazhong Hu, Alban Urvoy, Zachary Vendeiro +3
We demonstrate direct laser cooling of a gas of rubidium 87 atoms to quantum degeneracy. The method does not involve evaporative cooling, is fast, and induces little atom loss. The…
