Radiative Transfer and Atom Transport
Carsten Henkel
The report deals with classical and quantum descriptions of particles that interact with smooth random potentials, for example ultracold atoms in the dipole potential of an optical…
A modulated mirror for atomic interferometry
C. Henkel, A. M. Steane, R. Kaiser +1
A novel atomic beam splitter, using reflection of atoms off an evanescent light wave, is investigated theoretically. The intensity or frequency of the light is modulated in order t…
Atomic diffraction by a thin phase grating
C. Henkel, J. -Y. Courtois, A. Aspect
We present a semiclassical perturbation method for the description of atomic diffraction by a weakly modulated potential. It proceeds in a way similar to the treatment of light dif…
The Physics of Atom-Surface Interactions
Carsten Henkel
A tutorial overview is given on interactions between atoms and surfaces that are mediated by the electromagnetic field. The emphasis is on dispersion (or van der Waals) forces and…
