Optomechanical self-structuring in cold atomic gases
Guillaume Labeyrie, Enrico Tesio, Pedro M. Gomes +6
The rapidly developing field of optomechanics aims at the combined control of optical and mechanical (solid-state or atomic) modes. In particular, laser cooled atoms have been used…
Microscopic characterization of Lévy flights of light in atomic vapors
Nicolas Mercadier, Martine Chevrollier, William Guerin +1
We investigate multiple scattering of near-resonant light in a Doppler-broadened atomic vapor. We experimentally characterize the length distribution of the steps between successiv…
Quantum simulations of localization effects with dipolar interactions
Gonzalo A. Alvarez, Robin Kaiser, Dieter Suter
Quantum information processing often uses systems with dipolar interactions. We use a nuclear spin-based quantum simulator, to study the spreading of information in such a dipolar-…
Subradiant hybrid states in the open 3D Anderson-Dicke model
A. Biella, F. Borgonovi, R. Kaiser +1
Anderson localization is a paradigmatic coherence effect in disordered systems, often analyzed in the absence of dissipation. Here we consider the case of coherent dissipation, occ…
Photon bubbles in ultra-cold matter
J. T. Mendonca, R. Kaiser
We show that static and oscillating photon bubbles can be excited by diffused light in the laser cooled matter confined in a magneto-optical trap (MOT). The bubble instability is d…
Interplay between radiation pressure force and scattered light intensity in the cooperative scattering by cold atoms
Tom Bienaime, Romain Bachelard, Julien Chabe +5
The interplay between the superradiant emission of a cloud of cold two-level atoms and the radiation pressure force is discussed. Using a microscopic model of coupled atomic dipole…
