Cold collisions between atoms in optical lattices [PDF]
J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 34, L231-L237 (2001), 2000 We have simulated binary collisions between atoms in optical lattices during Sisyphus cooling. Our Monte Carlo Wave Function simulations show that the collisions selectively accelerate mainly the hotter atoms in the thermal ensemble, and thus affect the steady state which one would normally expect to reach in Sisyphus cooling without collisions.

Atomic collision dynamics in optical lattices [PDF]
Phys. Rev. A 65, 033411 (2002) (16 pages), 2001 We simulate collisions between two atoms, which move in an optical lattice under the dipole-dipole interaction. The model describes simultaneously the two basic dynamical processes, namely the Sisyphus cooling of single atoms, and the light-induced inelastic collisions between them. We consider the J=1/2 -> J=3/2 laser cooling transition for Cs, Rb and
