Nobel Lecture: Laser cooling and trap** of neutral atoms

WD Phillips - Reviews of Modern Physics, 1998‏ - APS
In 1978, while I was a postdoctoral fellow at MIT, I read a paper by Art Ashkin (1978) in
which he described how one might slow down an atomic beam of sodium using the radiation …

Nobel Lecture: Manipulating atoms with photons

CN Cohen-Tannoudji - Reviews of Modern Physics, 1998‏ - APS
Electromagnetic interactions play a central role in low energy physics. They are responsible
for the cohesion of atoms and molecules and they are at the origin of the emission and …

Evidence of Bose-Einstein condensation in an atomic gas with attractive interactions

CC Bradley, CA Sackett, JJ Tollett, RG Hulet - Physical review letters, 1995‏ - APS
Abstract Evidence for Bose-Einstein condensation of a gas of spin-polarized 7 Li atoms is
reported. Atoms confined to a permanent-magnet trap are laser cooled to 200 μK and are …

Laser cooling of antihydrogen atoms

CJ Baker, W Bertsche, A Capra, C Carruth, CL Cesar… - Nature, 2021‏ - nature.com
The photon—the quantum excitation of the electromagnetic field—is massless but carries
momentum. A photon can therefore exert a force on an object upon collision. Slowing the …

Evaporative cooling of trapped atoms

W Ketterle, NJ Van Druten - Advances in atomic, molecular, and optical …, 1996‏ - Elsevier
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the concept of evaporative cooling of trapped
neutral atoms. The recent observations of Bose–Einstein condensation have shown …

Bose-Einstein condensation of atomic hydrogen

DG Fried, TC Killian, L Willmann, D Landhuis… - Physical Review Letters, 1998‏ - APS
We report observation of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of a trapped, dilute gas of
atomic hydrogen. The condensate and normal gas are studied by two-photon spectroscopy …

Confinement of antihydrogen for 1,000 seconds

Nature Physics, 2011‏ - nature.com
Atoms made of a particle and an antiparticle are unstable, usually surviving less than a
microsecond. Antihydrogen, made entirely of antiparticles, is believed to be stable, and it is …

Laser cooling and trap** of neutral atoms

CS Adams, E Riis - Progress in quantum electronics, 1997‏ - Elsevier
The ability to cool, manipulate, and trap atoms using laser light has allowed a new, rapidly
expanding field to emerge. Current research focuses on improving existing cooling …

Kinetic theory of the evaporative cooling of a trapped gas

OJ Luiten, MW Reynolds, JTM Walraven - Physical Review A, 1996‏ - APS
We apply kinetic theory to the problem of evaporative cooling of a dilute collisional gas in a
trap. Assuming ''sufficient ergodicity''(phase-space distribution only a function of energy) and …
