A combination of static and oscillating magnetic fields can be used to'dress' atoms with radio-
frequency (RF), or microwave, radiation. The spatial variation of these fields can be used to …

Laser cooled atoms have proven transformative for precision metrology, playing a pivotal
role in state-of-the-art clocks and interferometers and having the potential to provide a step …

Particle-wave duality enables the construction of interferometers for matter waves, which
complement optical interferometers in precision measurement devices. This requires the …

Laser-cooled atoms are central to modern precision measurements,,,,,. They are also
increasingly important as an enabling technology for experimental cavity quantum …

Here we review the field of atom chips in the context of Bose–Einstein Condensates (BEC)
as well as cold matter in general. Twenty years after the first realization of the BEC and 15 …

Theories of dark energy require a screening mechanism to explain why the associated
scalar fields do not mediate observable long range fifth forces. The archetype of this is the …

This topical review provides an overview of the key theoretical features of Bose–Einstein
condensates (BECs) in cold atomic gases at near zero temperature in the situation where all …

We present a method for determining the phase and contrast of a single shot of an atom
interferometer. The application of a phase shear across the atom ensemble yields a spatially …

We study the population dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a double-well potential
throughout the crossover from Josephson dynamics to hydrodynamics. At barriers higher …

A single-layer atom chip for laser cooling and trap** of atoms which operates in a
continuous regime is designed and experimentally investigated. The continuous regime was …
