Measuring the Quantum State of a Large Angular Momentum
Gerd Klose, Greg Smith, Poul S. Jessen
We demonstrate a general method to measure the quantum state of an angular momentum of arbitrary magnitude. The (2F+1) x (2F+1) density matrix is completely determined from a set o…

Resolved-sideband Raman cooling to the ground state of an optical lattice
S. E. Hamann, D. L. Haycock, G. Klose +3
We trap neutral Cs atoms in a two-dimensional optical lattice and cool them close to the zero-point of motion by resolved-sideband Raman cooling. Sideband cooling occurs via transi…
