Journal ArticleDOI
Formation of a Matter-Wave Bright Soliton
Lev Khaykovich,Florian Schreck,Gabriele Ferrari,Gabriele Ferrari,Thomas Bourdel,J. Cubizolles,Lincoln D. Carr,Yvan Castin,Christophe Salomon +8 more
TL;DR: The production of matter-wave solitons in an ultracold lithium-7 gas opens possibilities for future applications in coherent atom optics, atom interferometry, and atom transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bloch oscillations of atoms in an optical potential.
TL;DR: Ultracold cesium atoms are prepared in the ground energy band of the potential induced by an optical standing wave and the momentum distribution of Bloch states and effective masses different from the mass of the free atom is measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bose-Einstein Condensates in Time Dependent Traps.
Yvan Castin,R. Dum +1 more
TL;DR: Analytical results for the macroscopic wave function of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a time dependent harmonic potential are presented, characterized by three scaling factors which allow a classical interpretation of the dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relative phase of two Bose-Einstein condensates
Yvan Castin,Jean Dalibard +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, two independent Bose-Einstein condensates, each initially containing a well-defined number of atoms, were shown to appear coherent in an experiment that measures the beat note between these condensate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extension of Bogoliubov theory to quasicondensates
Christophe Mora,Yvan Castin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extension of the well-known Bogoliubov theory to treat low-dimensional degenerate Bose gases in the limit of weak interactions and low density fluctuations is presented.
