From single to many atoms in a microscopic optical dipole trap
This thesis focuses on the manipulation of rubidium 87 atoms in a microscopic optical dipole trap. The experiments are performed in various regimes where the number of... -
Quantized vortices in a Bose-Einstein condensate: thermal activation and dyna...
This thesis manuscript presents experimental results on Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices and in the regime of fast rotation. In an optical lattice an... -

Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless Crossover in a Trapped Atomic Gas
Any state of matter is classified according to its order, and the kind of order a physical system can posses is profoundly affected by its dimensionality. Conventional... -
Spatial and temporal coherence of a Bose-condensed gas
25 pages, 5 figures ; contribution to the Springer&Verlag book "Quantum Fluids: hot-topics and new trends", edited by A. Bramati and M. Modugno -
Dynamics of the Bose-Einstein condensation: analogy with the collapse dynamic...

New trends in the physics of spinor exciton-polariton condensates : topologic...
Along this thesis manuscript I shall present some emergent nonlinear phenomena in spinor exciton polariton condensates. After an introductory chapter bringing the... -
Transport in one-dimensional disordered Bose-Einstein condensates
This thesis presents a theoretical study of coherent transport phenomena in unidimensional Bose-Einstein condensates in presence of disorder. We devoted a particular... -
2-photon photoassociation of ultra-cold metastable helium
In the vicinity of Bose-Einstein condensation, the collisional properties of a dilute gas of metastable helium He∗ in the state 23 S1 are governed by the rate of... -

Collective dynamics of excitons and exciton-polaritons in nanoscale heterostr...
In my thesis I will discuss some aspects of collective dynamics of excitons and exciton-polaritons in nanoscale heterostructures. In the first Chapter I will make a... -
Environment-induced dynamics in a dilute Bose-Einstein condensate
We directly model the quantum many particle dynamics during the transition of a gas of N indistinguishable bosons into a Bose-Einstein condensate. To this end, we... -
Atomic density of an harmonically trapped ideal gas near Bose-Einstein transi...
We have studied the atomic density of a cloud confined in an isotropic harmonic trap at the vicinity of the Bose-Einstein transition temperature. We show that, for a... -
Rigorous investigation of the reduced density matrix for the ideal Bose gas i...
v3: Minor modifications of v2. v2: Major modifications: the former version (v1) has been completely rewritten. New results concerning the anisotropic traps and generalized...
