Dynamical instability and domain formation in a spin-1 Bose condensate
Wenxian Zhang, D. L. Zhou, M. -S. Chang +2
We interpret the recently observed spatial domain formation in spin-1 atomic condensates as a result of dynamical instability. Within the mean field theory, a homogeneous condensat…

Coherent spin mixing dynamics in a spin-1 atomic condensate
Wenxian Zhang, D. L. Zhou, M. -S. Chang +2
We study the coherent off-equilibrium spin mixing inside an atomic condensate. Using mean field theory and adopting the single spatial mode approximation (SMA), the condensate spin…

Cavity QED with optically transported atoms
J. A. Sauer, K. M. Fortier, M. S. Chang +2
Ultracold Rb atoms are delivered into a high-finesse optical micro-cavity using a translating optical lattice trap and detected via the cavity field. The atoms are loaded in…
