The Jaynes–Cummings Model (JCM) has recently been receiving increased attention as
one of the simplest, yet intricately nonlinear, models of quantum physics. Emphasising the …

This is a review of state-of-the-art theory and experiment of the motion of cold and ultracold
atoms coupled to the radiation field within a high-finesse optical resonator in the dispersive …

Distributed quantum networks will allow users to perform tasks and to interact in ways which
are not possible with present-day technology. Their implementation is a key challenge for …

The counter-intuitive aspects of quantum physics have been for long illustrated by thought
experiments, from Einstein's photon box to Schrödinger's cat. These experiments have now …

The control of individual quantum systems is now a reality in a variety of physical settings.
Feedback control is an important class of control methods because of its ability to reduce the …

This paper reviews the work on cavity quantum electrodynamics of free atoms. In recent
years, cavity experiments have also been conducted on a variety of solid-state systems …

We theoretically investigate the correlated dynamics of N coherently driven atoms coupled to
a standing-wave cavity mode. For red detuning between the driving field and the cavity as …

All conventional methods to laser-cool atoms rely on repeated cycles of optical pum** and
spontaneous emission of a photon by the atom. Spontaneous emission in a random …

We demonstrate the realization of a quantum register using a string of single neutral atoms
which are trapped in an optical dipole trap. The atoms are selectively and coherently …

Based on a real-time measurement of the motion of a single ion in a Paul trap, we
demonstrate its electromechanical cooling below the Doppler limit by homodyne feedback …
