Short-time quantum correlations in the atom optics kicked rotor
S. A. Wayper, W. Simpson, M. D. Hoogerland
We experimentally verify the analytical expressions that exist for the diffusion rate in the quantum delta kicked rotor system for small numbers of kicks. We show development of di…

Atom optics kicked rotor: experimental evidence for a pendulum description of the quantum resonance
S. Wayper, M. Sadgrove, W. Simpson +1
We present measurements of the mean energy for an atom optics kicked rotor ensemble close to quantum resonance. Oscillations in the mean energy in this regime are are shown to be i…
