Dynamically Slowed Collapse of a Bose-Einstein Condensate with Negative Scattering Length
R. L. Compton, Y. -J. Lin, K. Jimenez-Garcia +2
We rapidly change the scattering length a_s of a 87Rb Bose-Einstein condensate by means of a Feshbach resonance, simultaneously releasing the condensate from its harmonic trapping…
A synthetic electric force acting on neutral atoms
Yu-Ju Lin, Robert L. Compton, Karina Jimenez-Garcia +3
Electromagnetism is a simple example of a gauge theory where the underlying potentials -- the vector and scalar potentials -- are defined only up to a gauge choice. The vector pote…
Synthetic magnetic fields for ultracold neutral atoms
Yu-Ju Lin, Rob L. Compton, Karina J. Garcia +2
Neutral atomic Bose condensates and degenerate Fermi gases have been used to realize important many-body phenomena in their most simple and essential forms, without many of the com…
Phases of a 2D Bose Gas in an Optical Lattice
K. Jimenez-Garcia, R. L. Compton, Y. -J. Lin +3
Ultra-cold atoms in optical lattices realize simple, fundamental models in condensed matter physics. Our 87Rb Bose-Einstein condensate is confined in a harmonic trapping potential…
Rapid production of Rb BECs in a combined magnetic and optical potential
Y. -J. Lin, A. R. Perry, R. L. Compton +2
We describe an apparatus for quickly and simply producing $\Rb87$ Bose-Einstein condensates. It is based on a magnetic quadrupole trap and a red detuned optical dipole trap. We col…
A Bose-Einstein Condensate in a Uniform Light-induced Vector Potential
Y. -J. Lin, R. L. Compton, A. R. Perry +3
We use a two-photon dressing field to create an effective vector gauge potential for Bose-condensed Rb atoms in the F=1 hyperfine ground state. The dressed states in this Raman fie…
