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.
Proceedings Article
Bose-Einstein condensation in a gas of sodium atoms
TL;DR: The striking signature of Bose condensation was the sudden appearance of a bimodal velocity distribution below the critical temperature of ~2µK.
Book ChapterDOI
Evaporative Cooling of Trapped Atoms
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on the concept of evaporative cooling of trapped neutral atoms and showed that phase-space density could be increased by six orders of magnitude in these experiments.
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 of a finite number of particles trapped in one or three dimensions
TL;DR: 1D atom traps, such as radially tightly confining magnetictraps or optical dipole traps, are promising for studying BEC and a transition temperature lower than in the thermodynamic limit is proposed.
