Dynamics of Fermionic Four-Wave Mixing
H. Christ, C. P. Search, P. Meystre
We study the dynamics of a beam of fermions diffracted off a density grating formed by fermionic atoms in the limit of a large grating. An exact description of the system in terms…
Effective mass analysis of Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices -- stabilization and levitation
H. Pu, L. O. Baksmaty, W. Zhang +2
We investigate the time evolution of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a periodic optical potential. Using an effective mass formalism, we study the equation of motion for the envelope…
Noise limits in matter-wave interferometry using degenerate quantum gases
Chris P. Search, Pierre Meystre
We analyze the phase resolution limit of a Mach-Zehnder atom interferometer whose input consists of degenerate quantum gases of either bosons or fermions. For degenerate gases, the…
Feshbach-resonance-induced atomic filamentation and quantum pair correlation in atom-laser-beam propagation
Weiping Zhang, Chris P. Search, Han Pu +2
We study the propagation of an atom laser beam through a spatial region with a magnetic field tuned to a Feshbach resonance. Tuning the magnetic field below the resonance produces…
Two-fermion bound state in a Bose-Einstein condensate
Weiping Zhang, Han Pu, Chris P. Search +2
A nonlinear Schrödinger equation is derived for the dynamics of a beam of ultracold fermionic atoms traversing a Bose-Einstein condensate. The condensate phonon modes are shown to…
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…
Magnetism in a lattice of spinor Bose condensates
Kevin Gross, Chris P. Search, Han Pu +2
We study the ground state magnetic properties of ferromagnetic spinor Bose-Einstein condensates confined in a deep optical lattices. In the Mott insulator regime, the ``mini-conden…
Macroscopic spin tunneling and quantum critical behavior of a condensate in double-well potential
Han Pu, Weiping Zhang, Pierre Meystre
In a previous work (PRL 87, 140405), we have shown that a spinor condensate confined in a periodic or double-well potential exhibits ferromagnetic behavior due to the magnetic dipo…
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…
