Optimal atomic detection by control of detuning and spatial dependence of laser intensity
B. Navarro, I. L. Egusquiza, J. G. Muga +1
Atomic detection by fluorescence may fail because of reflection from the laser or transmission without excitation. The detection probability for a given velocity range may be impro…
Atomic time-of-arrival measurements with a laser of finite beam width
J. A. Damborenea, I. L. Egusquiza, G. C. Hegerfeldt +1
A natural approach to measure the time of arrival of an atom at a spatial region is to illuminate this region with a laser and detect the first fluorescence photons produced by the…
Suppression of Rabi oscillations for moving atoms
B. Navarro, I. L. Egusquiza, J. G. Muga +1
The well-known laser-induced Rabi oscillations of a two-level atom are shown to be suppressed under certain conditions when the atom is entering a laser-illuminated region. For tem…
Real clocks and the Zeno effect
I. L. Egusquiza, L. J. Garay
Real clocks are not perfect. This must have an effect in our predictions for the behaviour of a quantum system, an effect for which we present a unified description encompassing se…
