Journal ArticleDOI
Bose-Einstein condensation in a gas of sodium atoms.
K. B. Davis,M.-O. Mewes,M. R. Andrews,N.J. van Druten,Dallin Durfee,D. M. Kurn,Wolfgang Ketterle +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, Bose-Einstein condensation of sodium atoms was observed in a novel trap that employed both magnetic and optical forces, which increased the phase-space density by 6 orders of magnitude within seven seconds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Output Coupler for Bose-Einstein Condensed Atoms
TL;DR: In this paper, an output coupler for Bose condensed atoms in a magnetic trap was demonstrated, where short pulses of rf radiation were used to create Bose condensates in a superposition of trapped and untrapped hyperfine states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Collective Excitations of a Bose-Einstein Condensate in a Magnetic Trap.
M.-O. Mewes,M. R. Andrews,N.J. van Druten,D. M. Kurn,Dallin Durfee,C. G. Townsend,Wolfgang Ketterle +6 more
TL;DR: The observation of shape oscillations of a trapped Bose condensate, modes analogous to phonons in homogeneous systems are reported on.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bose-Einstein Condensation in a Tightly Confining dc Magnetic Trap.
TL;DR: Bose-Einstein condensation of sodium atoms has been observed in a novel Cloverleaf trap, finding agreement with theoretical predictions and the repulsive mean-field energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct, nondestructive observation of a Bose condensate
TL;DR: The spatial observation of a Bose condensate is reported, and the width of the angular distribution of scattered light increased suddenly at the phase transition.
