Coherent Diffusion of Polaritons in Atomic Media

Ofer Firstenberg, Moshe Shuker, Amiram Ron +1

Coherent diffusion pertains to the motion of atomic dipoles experiencing frequent collisions in vapor while maintaining their coherence. Recent theoretical and experimental studies…

All-optical reconstruction of atomic ground-state population

P. London, O. Firstenberg, M. Shuker +1

The population distribution within the ground-state of an atomic ensemble is of large significance in a variety of quantum optics processes. We present a method to reconstruct the…

Measurement of Dicke Narrowing in Electromagnetically Induced Transparency

M. Shuker, O. Firstenberg, R. Pugatch +3

Dicke narrowing is a phenomena that dramatically reduces the Doppler width of spectral lines, due to frequent velocity-changing collisions. A similar phenomena occurs for electroma…

Theory of Dicke narrowing in coherent population trapping

O. Firstenberg, M. Shuker, A. Ben-Kish +3

The Doppler effect is one of the dominant broadening mechanisms in thermal vapor spectroscopy. For two-photon transitions one would naively expect the Doppler effect to cause a res…

The Effect of Neutral Atoms on Capillary Discharge Z-pinch

Ron A. Nemirovsky, Amit Ben-Kish, Moshe Shuker +1

We study the effect of neutral atoms on the dynamics of a capillary discharge Z-pinch, in a regime for which a large soft-x-ray amplification has been demonstrated. We extended the…
