Unstable regimes for a Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice
L. De Sarlo, L. Fallani, J. E. Lye +4
We report on the experimental characterization of energetic and dynamical instability, two mechanisms responsible for the breakdown of Bloch waves in a Bose-Einstein condensate int…

A Bose-Einstein condensate in a random potential
J. E. Lye, L. Fallani, M. Modugno +3
An optical speckle potential is used to investigate the static and dynamic properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of disorder. For strong disorder the condensate…

Observation of dynamical instability for a Bose-Einstein condensate in a moving 1D optical lattice
L. Fallani, L. De Sarlo, J. E. Lye +4
We have experimentally studied the unstable dynamics of a harmonically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate loaded into a 1D moving optical lattice. The lifetime of the condensate in s…
