Observing Zitterbewegung in Ultracold Atoms
J. Y. Vaishnav, Charles W. Clark
We propose an optical lattice scheme which would permit the experimental observation of Zitterbewegung (ZB) with ultracold, neutral atoms. A four-level "tripod" variant of the usua…
Experimentally accessible reentrant phase transitions in double-well optical lattices
Ippei Danshita, Carlos A. R. Sa de Melo, Charles W. Clark
We study the quantum phases of bosons confined in a combined potential of a one-dimensional double-well optical lattice and a parabolic trap. We apply the time-evolving block decim…
Two-Dimensional Electron Gas with Cold Atoms in Non-Abelian Gauge Potentials
Indubala I. Satija, Daniel C. Dakin, J. Y. Vaishnav +1
Motivated by the possibility of creating non-Abelian fields using cold atoms in optical lattices, we explore the richness and complexity of non-interacting two-dimensional electron…
