Bose-Einstein Condensates in a 1D Optical Lattice
S. Burger, F. S. Cataliotti, F. Ferlaino +4
We give an overview on current experiments on Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) in a one-dimensional (1D) optical lattice. We introduce measurements of ground state, tunnelling and…
Quasi 2D Bose-Einstein condensation in an optical lattice
S. Burger, F. S. Cataliotti, C. Fort +3
We study the phase transition of a gas of Rb atoms to quantum degeneracy in the combined potential of a harmonically confining magnetic trap and the periodic potential of an optica…
Superfluid and Dissipative Dynamics of a Bose-Einstein Condensate in a Periodic Optical Potential
S. Burger, F. S. Cataliotti, C. Fort +4
We create Bose-Einstein condensates of 87-rubidium in a static magnetic trap with a superimposed blue-detuned 1D optical lattice. By displacing the magnetic trap center we are able…
Dynamics of two colliding Bose-Einstein condensates in an elongated magneto-static trap
M. Modugno, F. Dalfovo, C. Fort +2
We study the dynamics of two interacting Bose-Einstein condensates, by numerically solving two coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations at zero temperature. We consider the case of a sud…
Collective oscillations of two colliding Bose-Einstein condensates
P. Maddaloni, M. Modugno, C. Fort +2
Two 87Rb condensates (F=2, m_f=2 and m_f=1) are produced in highly displaced harmonic traps and the collective dynamical behaviour is investigated. The mutual interaction between t…
