Radiative Transfer and Atom Transport
Carsten Henkel
The report deals with classical and quantum descriptions of particles that interact with smooth random potentials, for example ultracold atoms in the dipole potential of an optical…
Atomic diffraction by a thin phase grating
C. Henkel, J. -Y. Courtois, A. Aspect
We present a semiclassical perturbation method for the description of atomic diffraction by a weakly modulated potential. It proceeds in a way similar to the treatment of light dif…
The Physics of Atom-Surface Interactions
Carsten Henkel
A tutorial overview is given on interactions between atoms and surfaces that are mediated by the electromagnetic field. The emphasis is on dispersion (or van der Waals) forces and…
Phase shifts of atomic de Broglie waves at an evanescent wave mirror
C. Henkel, J. -Y. Courtois, R. Kaiser +2
A detailed theoretical investigation of the reflection of an atomic de Broglie wave at an evanescent wave mirror is presented. The classical and the semiclassical descriptions of t…
Heating of trapped particles close to surfaces - Blackbody and beyond
C. Henkel, M. Wilkens
We discuss heating and decoherence in traps for ions and neutral particles close to metallic surfaces. We focus on simple trap geometries and compute noise spectra of thermally exc…
Four New Dense Molecular Cores in the Taurus Molecular Cloud (TMC): Ammonia and Cyanodiacetylene Observations
C. Codella, R. Welser, C. Henkel +2
Trying to obtain a more complete picture of star forming regions in the Taurus Molecular Cloud, four newly discovered dense cores (L1521D, L1521F, L1524, L1507A) are identified and…
