Fast transitionless expansions of cold atoms in optical Gaussian beam traps
E. Torrontegui, Xi Chen, M. Modugno +3
We study fast expansions of cold atoms in a three-dimensional Gaussian-beam optical trap. Three different methods to avoid final motional excitation are compared: inverse engineeri…
Exploring classically chaotic potentials with a matter wave quantum probe
Giovanni Luca Gattobigio, Antoine Couvert, Bertrand Georgeot +1
We study an experimental setup in which a quantum probe, provided by a quasi-monomode guided atom laser, interacts with a static localized attractive potential whose characteristic…
Zeeman slowers made simple with permanent magnets in a Halbach configuration
P. Cheiney, O. Carraz, D. Bartoszek-Bober +7
We describe a simple Zeeman slower design using permanent magnets. Contrary to common wire-wound setups no electric power and water cooling are required. In addition, the whole sys…
