Theoretical tools for atom laser beam propagation
J. -F. Riou, Y. Le Coq, F. Impens +4
We present a theoretical model for the propagation of non self-interacting atom laser beams. We start from a general propagation integral equation, and we use the same approximatio…
Guided Quasicontinuous Atom Laser
William Guerin, Jean-Félix Riou, John P. Gaebler +3
We report the first realization of a guided quasicontinuous atom laser by rf outcoupling a Bose-Einstein condensate from a hybrid optomagnetic trap into a horizontal atomic wavegui…
Beam quality of a non-ideal atom laser
J. -F. Riou, W. Guerin, Y. Le Coq +4
We study the propagation of a non-interacting atom laser distorted by the strong lensing effect of the Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) from which it is outcoupled. We observe a tran…
Partially ferromagnetic electromagnet for trapping and cooling neutral atoms to quantum degeneracy
Marie Fauquembergue, Jean-Félix Riou, William Guerin +7
We have developed a compact partially ferromagnetic electromagnet to produce a Ioffe-Pritchard trap for neutral atoms. Our structure permits strong magnetic confinement with low po…
