The Tension on dsDNA Bound to ssDNA/RecA Filaments May Play an Important Role in Driving Efficient and Accurate Homology Recognition and Strand Exchange
Julea Vlassakis, Efraim Feinstein, Darren Yang +5
It is well known that during homology recognition and strand exchange the double stranded DNA (dsDNA) in DNA/RecA filaments is highly extended, but the functional role of the exten…
Macroscopic magnetic guide for cold atoms
Alexey Tonyushkin, Mara Prentiss
We demonstrate a macroscopic magnetic guide for cold atoms with suppressed longitudinal field curvature which is highly desired for atom interferometry. The guide is based on macro…
Realization of Coherent Optically Dense Media via Buffer-Gas Cooling
Tao Hong, Alexey V. Gorshkov, David Patterson +4
We demonstrate that buffer-gas cooling combined with laser ablation can be used to create coherent optical media with high optical depth and low Doppler broadening that offers meta…
Optical bistability at low light level due to collective atomic recoil
M. Vengalattore, M. Hafezi, M. D. Lukin +1
We demonstrate optical nonlinearities due to the interaction of weak optical fields with the collective motion of a strongly dispersive ultracold gas. The combination of a recoil-i…
Demonstration of perfect coherence preservation for matter-waves perturbed by a delta-kicked rotor
A. Tonyushkin, S. Wu, M. Prentiss
We demonstrate perfect coherence preservation in an atom interferometer perturbed by kicks from off-resonant standing wave pulses. Under most conditions, the decoherence induced by…
Observation of coherence revival and fidelity saturation in a delta-kicked rotor potential
Saijun Wu, Alexey Tonyushkin, Mara G. Prentiss
We experimentally investigate the effect of atomic -kicked rotor potentials on the mutual coherence between wavepackets in an atom interferometer. The differential action of the…
