How to estimate the differential acceleration in a two-species atom interferometer to test the equivalence principle
Gael Varoquaux, Robert A. Nyman, Rémi Geiger +3
We propose a scheme for testing the weak equivalence principle (Universality of Free Fall) using an atom-interferometric measurement of the local differential acceleration between…

All-optical runaway evaporation to Bose-Einstein condensation
Jean-Francois Clément, Jean-Philippe Brantut, Martin Robert De Saint Vincent +4
We demonstrate runaway evaporative cooling directly with a tightly confining optical dipole trap and achieve fast production of condensates of 1.5x10^5 87Rb atoms. Our scheme is ch…
