Input-output theory for fermions in an atom cavity

C. P. Search, S. Poetting, W. Zhang +1

We generalize the quantum optical input-output theory developed for optical cavities to ultracold fermionic atoms confined in a trapping potential, which forms an "atom cavity". In…

Raman coupler for a trapped two-component quantum-degenerate Fermi gas

S. Potting, M. Cramer, W. Zhang +1

We investigate theoretically the Raman coupling between two internal states of a trapped low-density quantum-degenerate Fermi gas. In general, the trap frequencies associated with…

Momentum state engineering and control in Bose-Einstein condensates

S. Potting, M. Cramer, P. Meystre

We demonstrate theoretically the use of genetic learning algorithms to coherently control the dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate. We consider specifically the situation of a co…

Coherent acceleration of Bose-Einstein condensates

S. Potting, M. Cramer, C. H. Schwalb +2

We present a theoretical analysis of the coherent acceleration of atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. A first scheme relies on the 'conveyor belt' provided by a frequency-chirped opt…

Coherent transport of matter waves

C. Henkel, S. Potting

A transport theory for atomic matter waves in low-dimensional waveguides is outlined. The thermal fluctuation spectrum of magnetic near fields leaking out of metallic microstructur…

Quantum coherence and interaction-free measurements

S. Potting, E. S. Lee, W. Schmitt +3

We investigate the extent to which ``interaction-free'' measurements perturb the state of quantum systems. We show that the absence of energy exchange during the measurement is not…

Loss and heating of particles in small and noisy traps

Carsten Henkel, Sierk Poetting, Martin Wilkens

We derive the life time and loss rate for a trapped particle that is coupled to fluctuating fields in the vicinity of a room-temperature metallic and/or dielectric surface. Our res…

Creation of gap solitons in Bose-Einstein condensates

O. Zobay, E. M. Wright, P. Meystre

We discuss a method to launch gap soliton-like structures in atomic Bose-Einstein condensates confined in optical traps. Bright vector solitons consisting of a superposition of two…
