Geometric Phases generated by the non-trivial spatial topology of static vector fields coupled to a neutral spin-endowed particle. Application to 171Yb atoms trapped in a 2D optical lattice

Marie-Anne Bouchiat, Claude Bouchiat

We have constructed the geometric phases emerging from the non-trivial topology of a space-dependent magnetic field, interacting with the spin magnetic moment of a neutral particle…

Atomic Parity Violation. Early days, present results, prospects

Marie-Anne Bouchiat

This is a personal recollection of the time when the search for APV was beginning. In spite of today's remarkable results, summarized here, there are still important goals to be ac…

Atomic interferometer measurements of Berry's and Aharonov-Anandan's phases for isolated spins S > 1/2 non-linearly coupled to external fields

Marie-Anne Bouchiat, Claude Bouchiat

The aim of the present paper is to propose experiments for observing the significant features of Berry's phases for S>1, generated by spin-Hamiltonians endowed with two couplings,…

Berry's Phases for Arbitrary Spins Non-Linearly Coupled to External Fields. Application to the Entanglement of N > 2 Non-Correlated One-Half Spins

Marie-Anne Bouchiat, Claude Bouchiat

We derive the general formula giving the Berry phase for an arbitrary spin, having both magnetic-dipole and electric-quadrupole couplings with external time-dependent fields. We as…

Investigation of Anti-Relaxation Coatings for Alkali-Metal Vapor Cells Using Surface Science Techniques

S. J. Seltzer, D. J. Michalak, M. H. Donaldson +17

Many technologies based on cells containing alkali-metal atomic vapor benefit from the use of anti-relaxation surface coatings in order to preserve atomic spin polarization. In par…

Linear Stark Shifts to Measure the Fr Weak Nuclear Charge with Small Atom Samples

Marie-Anne Bouchiat

We study the chirality of ground-state alkali atoms in E and B fields, dressed with a circularly-polarized laser beam close-detuned from an E-field-assisted forbidden transition, s…
