A C0(_2) laser lattice experiment for cold atoms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis presents work on a laser cooling experiment designed for trapping Rb atoms in a CO(_2) laser optical trap. Some emphasis is placed on experimental features designed to allow the future implementation of a neutral atom quantum computation ...

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Realisation of a cold mixture of rubidium and caesium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This thesis describes a new apparatus designed to study cold, ultracold, and quantum degenerate mixtures of rubidium and caesium atoms. The Rb- Cs mixture is prepared using a double magneto-optical trap (MOT) system in which a two-species pyramid MOT ...

Hydrostatic pressure activates HIF‐1α via β‐catenin to promote stemness in breast cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To mimic the elevated intestinal fluid pressure in breast cancers, we loaded human breast cancer cells (MCF‐7, MDA‐MB‐453, and BT‐474) to 50 mmHg hydrostatic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure exposure upregulated HIF‐1α and induced stemness in MCF‐7 and BT‐474 cells.

Heating in Nanophotonic Traps for Cold Atoms

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2019
Laser-cooled atoms that are trapped and optically interfaced with light in nanophotonic waveguides are a powerful platform for fundamental research in quantum optics as well as for applications in quantum communication and quantum-information processing.

Satellite-borne atomic clock based on diffuse laser-cooled atoms

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2022
The technique of laser cooling of atoms gives an opportunity to improve the performance of atomic clocks by using laser-cooled atoms. The most successful cold atom clock, called the atomic fountain, is now widely used as the primary frequency standard in

An optically guided atomic fountain [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
This thesis describes the development of a laser-cooling experiment aimed at efficient transfer of cold atoms over a short distance, for loading into a conservative atom trap.

Sympathetic cooling of a membrane oscillator in a hybrid mechanical-atomic system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The quantum behaviour of macroscopic mechanical oscillators is currently being investigated using a variety of mechanical systems and techniques such as optomechanical cooling and cold damping.

Cold-Atom Particle Collider

open access: yesPRX Quantum
A major objective of the strong ongoing drive to realize quantum simulators of gauge theories is achieving the capability to probe collider-relevant physics on them. In this regard, a highly pertinent and sought-after application is the controlled collisions of elementary and composite particles, as well as the scattering processes in their wake. Here,
