The research projects in the BEC group
Rubidium team: BEC on a curved surface
 Dynamical ring |
A radio-frequency dressed bubble-shape trap enables the study of fast rotating Bose gases. Thanks to a newly developed gravity compensation scheme we aim at studying two-dimensional vortex turbulence on a curved surface. See the Rubidium project page. |
Sodium team: BEC on a chip
 Atom chip |
The atom chip setup aims at studying the dynamics of interacting 1D Bose gases. Visit its homepage! |
Theory: Quantum anomaly in 2D
 Quantum anomaly |
We also have a theory activity, in collaboration with colleagues (Maxim Olshanii, Anna Minguzzi, and others). Illustration: effect of a quantum anomaly on a Bose gas confined to 2 dimensions. The anomaly produces a small shift of the frequency of the breathing mode. We proposed a way to observe this effect in an experiment. |
