A compact single-chamber apparatus for Bose-Einstein condensation of Rb

Igor Gotlibovych, Tobias F. Schmidutz, Stuart Moulder +7

We describe a simple and compact single-chamber apparatus for robust production of Rb Bose-Einstein condensates. The apparatus is built from off-the-shelf components and allow…

Quantised supercurrent decay in an annular Bose-Einstein condensate

Stuart Moulder, Scott Beattie, Robert P. Smith +2

We study the metastability and decay of multiply-charged superflow in a ring-shaped atomic Bose-Einstein condensate. Supercurrent corresponding to a giant vortex with topological c…

Condensed Fraction of an Atomic Bose Gas Induced by Critical Correlations

Robert P. Smith, Naaman Tammuz, Robert L. D. Campbell +2

We study the condensed fraction of a harmonically-trapped atomic Bose gas at the critical point predicted by mean-field (MF) theory. The non-zero condensed fraction is induce…

Effects of Interactions on the Critical Temperature of a Trapped Bose Gas

Robert P. Smith, Robert L. D. Campbell, Naaman Tammuz +1

We perform high-precision measurements of the condensation temperature of a harmonically-trapped atomic Bose gas with widely-tuneable interactions. For weak interactions we observe…

Can a Bose gas be saturated?

Naaman Tammuz, Robert P. Smith, Robert L. D. Campbell +4

Bose-Einstein condensation is unique among phase transitions between different states of matter in the sense that it occurs even in the absence of interactions between particles. I…

Efficient Production of Large 39K Bose-Einstein Condensates

Robert L. D. Campbell, Robert P. Smith, Naaman Tammuz +3

We describe an experimental setup and the cooling procedure for producing 39K Bose-Einstein condensates of over 4x10^5 atoms. Condensation is achieved via a combination of sympathe…
