Transport of Bose-Einstein Condensates with Optical Tweezers
T. L. Gustavson, A. P. Chikkatur, A. E. Leanhardt +4
We have transported gaseous Bose-Einstein condensates over distances up to 44 cm. This was accomplished by trapping the condensate in the focus of an infrared laser and translating…
Realization of Bose-Einstein condensates in lower dimensions
A. Gorlitz, J. M. Vogels, A. E. Leanhardt +9
Bose-Einstein condensates of sodium atoms have been prepared in optical and magnetic traps in which the energy-level spacing in one or two dimensions exceeds the interaction energy…
Observation of vortex phase singularities in Bose-Einstein condensates
S. Inouye, S. Gupta, T. Rosenband +6
We have observed phase singularities due to vortex excitation in Bose-Einstein condensates. Vortices were created by moving a laser beam through a condensate. They were observed as…
