phenomena in dilute, ultracold gases. It focuses on effects beyond standard weak-coupling …

Rotating trapped bose-einstein condensates

AL Fetter - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2009‏ - APS
After reviewing the ideal Bose-Einstein gas in a box and in a harmonic trap, the effect of
interactions on the formation of a Bose-Einstein condensate are discussed, along with the …

Dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices

O Morsch, M Oberthaler - Reviews of modern physics, 2006‏ - APS
Matter waves inside periodic potentials are well known from solid-state physics, where
electrons interacting with a crystal lattice are considered. Atomic Bose-Einstein condensates …

Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless crossover in a trapped atomic gas

Z Hadzibabic, P Krüger, M Cheneau, B Battelier… - Nature, 2006‏ - nature.com
Any state of matter is classified according to its order, and the type of order that a physical
system can possess is profoundly affected by its dimensionality. Conventional long-range …

Dynamics and statistical mechanics of ultra-cold Bose gases using c-field techniques

PB Blakie, AS Bradley, MJ Davis, RJ Ballagh… - Advances in …, 2008‏ - Taylor & Francis
We review phase-space techniques based on the Wigner representation that provide an
approximate description of dilute ultra-cold Bose gases. In this approach the quantum field …

Kosterlitz–Thouless physics: a review of key issues

JM Kosterlitz - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2016‏ - iopscience.iop.org
This article reviews, from a very personal point of view, the origins and the early work on
transitions driven by topological defects such as vortices in the two dimensional planar rotor …

Two-dimensional Bose fluids: An atomic physics perspective

Z Hadzibabic, J Dalibard - La Rivista del Nuovo Cimento, 2011‏ - Springer
We give in this lecture an introduction to the physics of two-dimensional (2d) Bose gases.
We first discuss the properties of uniform, infinite 2d Bose fluids at non-zero temperature T …

Critical point of an interacting two-dimensional atomic Bose gas

P Krüger, Z Hadzibabic, J Dalibard - Physical Review Letters, 2007‏ - APS
We have measured the critical atom number in an array of harmonically trapped two-
dimensional (2D) Bose gases of rubidium atoms at different temperatures. We found this …

Interference between independent fluctuating condensates

A Polkovnikov, E Altman, E Demler - … of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006‏ - pnas.org
We consider a problem of interference between two independent condensates that lack true
long-range order. We show that their interference pattern contains information about …

Loading and compression of a single two-dimensional Bose gas in an optical accordion

JL Ville, T Bienaimé, R Saint-Jalm, L Corman… - Physical Review A, 2017‏ - APS
The experimental realization of two-dimensional (2D) Bose gases with a tunable interaction
strength is an important challenge for the study of ultracold quantum matter. Here we report …
