Quantum phase transition from a superfluid to a Mott insulator in a gas of ultracold atoms
Markus Greiner, Olaf Mandel, Tilman Esslinger +2
For a system at a temperature of absolute zero, all thermal fluctuations are frozen out, while quantum fluctuations prevail. These microscopic quantum fluctuations can induce a mac…
A crucial test for astronomical spectrograph calibration with frequency combs
Rafael A. Probst, Dinko Milaković, Borja Toledo-Padrón +23
Laser frequency combs (LFCs) are well on their way to becoming the next-generation calibration sources for precision astronomical spectroscopy. This development is considered key i…
Reducing the effect of thermal noise in optical cavities
Sana Amairi, Thomas Legero, Thomas Kessler +4
Thermal noise in optical cavities imposes a severe limitation in the stability of the most advanced frequency standards at a level of a few 10^(-16) (s/t)^(1/2) for long averaging…
Sympathetic Cooling of Mixed Species Two-Ion Crystals for Precision Spectroscopy
Jannes B. Wübbena, Sana Amairi, Olaf Mandel +1
Sympathetic cooling of trapped ions has become an indispensable tool for quantum information processing and precision spectroscopy. In the simplest situation a single Doppler-coole…
Quantum Information Processing in Optical Lattices and Magnetic Microtraps
Philipp Treutlein, Tilo Steinmetz, Yves Colombe +9
We review our experiments on quantum information processing with neutral atoms in optical lattices and magnetic microtraps. Atoms in an optical lattice in the Mott insulator regime…
Precision measurement of spin-dependent interaction strengths for spin-1 and spin-2 87Rb atoms
Artur Widera, Fabrice Gerbier, Simon Foelling +3
We report on precision measurements of spin-dependent interaction-strengths in the 87Rb spin-1 and spin-2 hyperfine ground states. Our method is based on the recent observation of…
