Bloch Oscillation Phases investigated by Multi-path Stuckelberg Atom Interferometry
Tahiyat Rahman, Anna Wirth-Singh, Andrew Ivanov +3
Atoms undergoing Bloch oscillations (BOs) in an accelerating optical lattice acquire momentum of two photon recoils per BO. This technique provides a large momentum transfer tool f…

Crossed-Beam slowing to enhance narrow-line Ytterbium Magneto-Optic Traps
Benjamin Plotkin-Swing, Anna Wirth, Daniel Gochnauer +3
We demonstrate a method to enhance the atom loading rate of a ytterbium (Yb) magneto-optic trap (MOT) operating on the 556 nm intercombination transit…
