On the use of light polarization to investigate the size, shape and refractive index dependence of backscattering Angstroem exponents
Alain Miffre, Danael Cholleton, Patrick Rairoux
In this letter, we exploit the polarization property of light to investigate the Angstroem exponent describing the wavelength dependence of optical backscatter between two waveleng…
Sensitive and accurate dual wavelength UV-VIS polarization detector for optical remote sensing of tropospheric aerosols
G. David, A. Miffre, B. Thomas +1
An UV-VIS polarization Lidar has been designed and specified for aerosols monitoring in the troposphere, showing the ability to precisely address low particle depolarization ratios…
Dispersion compensation in atom interferometry by a Sagnac phase
Marion Jacquey, Alain Miffre, Gérard Trénec +3
We reanalyzed our atom interferometer measurement of the electric polarizability of lithium now accounting for the Sagnac effect due to Earth rotation. The resulting correction to…
Atom interferometry
Alain Miffre, Marion Jacquey, Matthias Büchner +2
In this paper, we present a brief overview of atom interferometry. This field of research has developed very rapidly since 1991. Atom and light wave interferometers present some si…
Measurement of the electric polarizability of lithium by atom interferometry
Alain Miffre, Marion Jacquey, Matthias Buchner +2
We have built an atom interferometer and, by applying an electric field on one of the two interfering beams, we have measured the static electric polarizability of lithium with a 0…
Parallel Temperatures in Supersonic Beams: Ultra Cooling of Light Atoms seeded in a Heavier Carrier Gas
Alain Miffre, Marion Jacquey, Matthias Buchner +2
We have found recently that, in a supersonic expansion of a mixture of two monoatomic gases, the parallel temperatures of the two gases can be very different. This effect is large…
