Measuring Electric Fields From Surface Contaminants with Neutral Atoms
J. M. Obrecht, R. J. Wild, E. A. Cornell
In this paper we demonstrate a technique of utilizing magnetically trapped neutral Rb-87 atoms to measure the magnitude and direction of stray electric fields emanating from surfac…

Thermally Induced Losses in Ultra-Cold Atoms Magnetically Trapped Near Room-Temperature Surfaces
D. M. Harber, J. M. McGuirk, J. M. Obrecht +1
We have measured magnetic trap lifetimes of ultra-cold Rb87 atoms at distances of 5-1000 microns from surfaces of conducting metals with varying resistivity. Good agreement is foun…
