Optical resonance shifts in the fluorescence of thermal and cold atomic gases

S. D. Jenkins, J. Ruostekoski, J. Javanainen +4

We show that the resonance shifts in the fluorescence of a cold gas of rubidium atoms substantially differ from those of thermal atomic ensembles that obey the standard continuous…

Propagation of light through small clouds of cold interacting atoms

S. Jennewein, Y. R. P. Sortais, J. -J. Greffet +1

We demonstrate experimentally that a cloud of cold atoms with a size comparable to the wavelength of light can induce large group delays on a laser pulse when the laser is tightly…

Sub-Poissonian atom number fluctuations using light-assisted collisions

Y. R. P. Sortais, A. Fuhrmanek, R. Bourgain +1

We investigate experimentally the number statistics of a mesoscopic ensemble of cold atoms in a microscopic dipole trap loaded from a magneto-optical trap, and find that the atom n…

Study of light-assisted collisions between a few cold atoms in a microscopic dipole trap

A. Fuhrmanek, R. Bourgain, Y. R. P. Sortais +1

We study light-assisted collisions in an ensemble containing a small number (~3) of cold Rb87 atoms trapped in a microscopic dipole trap. Using our ability to operate with one atom…

Controlling the cold collision shift in high precision atomic interferometry

F. Pereira Dos Santos, H. Marion, S. Bize +3

We present here a new method based on a transfer of population by adiabatic passage that allows to prepare cold atomic samples with a well defined ratio of atomic density and atom…
