Coherent optical transfer of Feshbach molecules to a lower vibrational state
K. Winkler, F. Lang, G. Thalhammer +3
Using the technique of stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) we have coherently transferred ultracold 87Rb2 Feshbach molecules into a more deeply bound vibrational quantum le…
Exotic atom pairs: Repulsively bound states in an optical lattice
J. Hecker Denschlag, A. J. Daley
We review a recent experiment with ultracold atoms in 3D optical lattices where we have observed a novel kind of bound state of two atoms which is based on repulsive interactions b…
Precision Measurements of Collective Oscillations in the BEC-BCS Crossover
A. Altmeyer, S. Riedl, C. Kohstall +6
We report on precision measurements of the frequency of the radial compression mode in a strongly interacting, optically trapped Fermi gas of Li-6 atoms. Our results allow for a te…
Repulsively bound atom pairs: Overview, Simulations and Links
A. J. Daley, A. Kantian, H. P. Büchler +6
We review the basic physics of repulsively bound atom pairs in an optical lattice, which were recently observed in the laboratory, including the theory and the experimental impleme…
Repulsively bound atom pairs in an optical lattice
K. Winkler, G. Thalhammer, F. Lang +6
Throughout physics, stable composite objects are usually formed via attractive forces, which allow the constituents to lower their energy by binding together. Repulsive forces sepa…
