Kibble-Zurek mechanism in the self-organization of a cold atomic cloud
Guillaume Labeyrie, Robin Kaiser
When applying two counter-propagating laser beams to a cold cloud of Rubidium atoms, we observe the spontaneous formation of intensity patterns associated with a spatial structurat…

Analysis of pattern forming instabilities in an ensemble of two-level atoms optically excited by counter-propagating fields
W. J. Firth, I. Krešić, G. Labeyrie +3
We explore various models for the pattern forming instability in a laser-driven cloud of cold two-level atoms with a plane feedback mirror. Focus is on the combined treatment of no…
