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…

Observation of spinor dynamics in optically trapped 87Rb Bose-Einstein Condensates
M. -S. Chang, C. D. Hamley, M. D. Barrett +5
We measure spin mixing of F=1 and F=2 spinor condensates of 87Rb atoms confined in an optical trap. We determine the spin mixing time to be typically less than 600 ms and observe s…
