Negative experimental evidence for magneto-orbital dichroism - supplemental information
Renaud Mathevet, Bruno Viaris de Lesegno, Laurence Pruvost +1
A light beam can carry both spin angular momentum (SAM) and orbital angular momentum (OAM). SAM is commonly evidenced by circular dichroism (CD) experiments {\em i. e.} differentia…
Matter wave scattering on an amplitude-modulated optical lattice
Pierrick Cheiney, Charlotte Fabre, François Vermersch +4
We experimentally study the scattering of guided matter waves on an amplitude-modulated optical lattice. We observe different types of frequency-dependent dips in the asymptotic ou…
Fizeau's "aether-drag" experiment in the undergraduate laboratory
Thierry Lahaye, Pierre Labastie, Renaud Mathevet
We describe a simple realization of Fizeau's "aether-drag" experiment. Using an inexpensive setup, we measure the phase shift induced by moving water in a laser interferometer and…
Realization of a distributed Bragg reflector for propagating guided matter waves
Charlotte M. Fabre, Pierrick Cheiney, Giovanni Luca Gattobigio +5
We report on the experimental realization of a Bragg reflector for guided matter waves. A Bose-Einstein condensate with controlled velocity distribution impinges onto an attractive…
Guided atom laser: transverse mode quality and longitudinal momentum distribution
François Vermersch, Charlotte Fabre, Pierrick Cheiney +3
We analyze the outcoupling of a matter wave into a guide by a time-dependent spilling of the atoms from an initially trapped Bose-Einstein condensate. This process yields intrinsic…
Zeeman slowers made simple with permanent magnets in a Halbach configuration
P. Cheiney, O. Carraz, D. Bartoszek-Bober +7
We describe a simple Zeeman slower design using permanent magnets. Contrary to common wire-wound setups no electric power and water cooling are required. In addition, the whole sys…
