He-McKellar-Wilkens topological phase in atom interferometry
Steven Lepoutre, Gérard Trenec, Matthias Büchner +2
We report the first experimental test of the topological phase predicted by He and McKellar and by Wilkens in 1993: this phase, which appears when an electric dipole propagates in…

Storage and control of optical photons using Rydberg polaritons
D. Maxwell, D. J. Szwer, D. P. Barato +6
We use a microwave field to control the quantum state of optical photons stored in a cold atomic cloud. The photons are stored in highly excited collective states (Rydberg polarito…
