Dephasing and breakdown of adiabaticity in the splitting of Bose Einstein Condensates
L. Pezze, A. Smerzi, G. P. Berman +2
We study the quantum dynamics of a BEC condensate trapped in a double-well potential with a rising interwell barrier. We analytically find the characteristic time scales of the spl…

Double-Slit Interferometry with a Bose-Einstein Condensate
L. A. Collins, L. Pezze', A. Smerzi +2
A Bose-Einstein "double-slit" interferometer has been recently realized experimentally by (Y. Shin et. al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 92 50405 (2004)). We analyze the interferometric steps…

Insulating Behavior of a Trapped Ideal Fermi Gas
L. Pezze', L. Pitaevskii, A. Smerzi +7
We investigate theoretically and experimentally the center-of-mass motion of an ideal Fermi gas in a combined periodic and harmonic potential. We find a crossover from a conducting…
