Toward A Neutral Mercury Optical Lattice Clock: Determination of the Magic Wa...
A lattice clock combines the advantages of ion and neutral atom based clocks, namely the recoil and first order Doppler free spectroscopy allowed by the Lamb-Dicke... -
Few and Many-body Physics in cold Rydberg gases
Uring this thesis, the Physics of interacting systems has been investigated experimentally using Cold Rydberg gases. Rydberg atoms are highly excited atoms and have... -
Matter wave scattering on complex potentials
The first part of this thesis concerns the development of a novel type of Zeeman slower (ZS) that is based on permanent magnets and has several advantages over the... -
Non-Gaussian Velocity Distributions in Optical Lattices
Final published version with 12 pages and 12 figures -
Atomic interferometers in an optical lattice
The aim of the ForCa-G project, for Casimir force and short range Gravitation, lies into the measurement of short range forces between atoms and a mirror using atomic...
