Atom Interferometry with Transverse Optical Modes

Ryan Husband, Ryan J. Thomas, Yosri Ben-Aïcha +10

We experimentally demonstrate atom interferometry using the transverse phase profile of an optical mode. As proof-of-principle, we use the helical phase windings of Hypergeometric…

A quantum sensor: simultaneous precision gravimetry and magnetic gradiometry with a Bose-Einstein condensate

Kyle S. Hardman, Patrick J. Everitt, Gordon D. McDonald +7

A Bose-Einstein condensate is used as an atomic source for a high precision sensor. A atom F=1 spinor condensate of Rb is released into free fall for up to $7…

Observation of Breathers in an Attractive Bose Gas

Patrick J. Everitt, Mahasen A. Sooriyabandara, Gordon D. McDonald +8

In weakly nonlinear dispersive systems, solitons are spatially localized solutions which propagate without changing shape through a delicate balance between dispersion and self-foc…

A Bright Solitonic Matter-Wave Interferometer

Gordon D. McDonald, Carlos C. N. Kuhn, Kyle S. Hardman +6

We present the first realisation of a solitonic atom interferometer. A Bose-Einstein condensate of atoms of rubidium-85 is loaded into a horizontal optical waveguide.…

A Bose-condensed, simultaneous dual species Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer

C. C. N. Kuhn, G. D. McDonald, K. S. Hardman +6

This paper presents the first realisation of a simultaneous Rb -Rb Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer with Bose-condensed atoms. A number of ambitious proposals for pre…

The Role of Source Coherence in Atom Interferometery

Kyle S. Hardman, Carlos C. N. Kuhn, Gordon D. McDonald +4

The role of source cloud spatial coherence in a Mach-Zehnder type atom interferometer is experimentally investigated. The visibility and contrast of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC…
