Bose-Hubbard model of cold atoms to higher orders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The aim of this work is to study the dynamics of cold atoms trapped in a one-dimensional periodic lattice generated by an optical potential. Such a system is described by a standard model in condensed matter, namely the so-called Bose-Hubbard model ...

Cooperative Optical Non-linearity in a blockaded Rydberg Ensemble [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis describes the observation of a novel optical non-linearity mediated by the dipole-dipole interactions in a cold gas of Rydberg atoms. Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) is used to map the strong dipolar interactions onto an ...

Simultaneous deceleration of atoms and molecules in a supersonic beam

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
A unique property of Zeeman effect based manipulation of paramagnetic particle’s motion is the ability to control velocities of both atoms and molecules.

Optomechanical coupling between ultracold atoms and a membrane oscillator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this thesis, I report on the realization of a hybrid optomechanical system in which ultracold atoms are coupled to a micromechanical membrane. The atoms are trapped in the intensity maxima of an optical standing wave formed by retroreflection of a ...

Quantum simulation of non-trivial topology

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
We propose several designs to simulate quantum many-body systems in manifolds with a non-trivial topology. The key idea is to create a synthetic lattice combining real-space and internal degrees of freedom via a suitable use of induced hoppings.

Mean-Field Description of Cooperative Scattering by Atomic Clouds

open access: yesAtoms, 2023
We present analytic expressions for the scattering of light by an extended atomic cloud. We obtain the solution for the mean-field excitation of different atomic spherical distributions driven by a uniform laser, including the initial build up, the ...

The separation between mRNA‐ends is more variable than expected

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio
Effective circularization of mRNA molecules is a key step for the efficient initiation of translation. Research has shown that the intrinsic separation of the ends of mRNA molecules is rather small, suggesting that intramolecular arrangements could ...

Artificial atoms from cold bosons in one dimension

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2022
We investigate the ground-state properties of weakly repulsive one-dimensional bosons in the presence of an attractive zero-range impurity potential. First, we derive mean-field solutions to the problem on a finite ring for the two asymptotic cases: (i ...
