Yang-Yang thermodynamics on an atom chip.
We investigate the behavior of a weakly interacting nearly one-dimensional trapped Bose gas at finite temperature. We perform in situ measurements of spatial density profiles and show that they are very well described by a model based on exact solutions obtained using the Yang-Yang thermodynamic formalism, in a regime where other, approximate theoretical approaches fail. We use Bose-gas focusin...
متن کاملOne-dimensional Bose gas on an atom chip
We describe experiments investigating the (coherence) properties of a finitetemperature one-dimensional (1D) Bose gas with repulsive interactions. The confining magnetic field is generated with a micro-electronic circuit. This microtrap for atoms or ‘atom chip’ is particularly suited to generate a tight waveguide for atoms close to the chip surface. In contrast to the usual case of Bose-Einstei...
متن کاملAnalytic thermodynamics and thermometry of Gaudin-Yang Fermi gases.
We study the thermodynamics of a one-dimensional attractive Fermi gas (the Gaudin-Yang model) with spin imbalance. The exact solution has been known from the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz for decades, but it involves an infinite number of coupled nonlinear integral equations whose physics is difficult to extract. Here the solution is analytically reduced to a simple, powerful set of four algebraic...
متن کاملBose-Einstein condensation of atoms in a uniform potential.
We have observed the Bose-Einstein condensation of an atomic gas in the (quasi)uniform three-dimensional potential of an optical box trap. Condensation is seen in the bimodal momentum distribution and the anisotropic time-of-flight expansion of the condensate. The critical temperature agrees with the theoretical prediction for a uniform Bose gas. The momentum distribution of a noncondensed quan...
متن کاملBose Gases in an Optical Lattice
We report on the study of the momentum distribution of a one-dimensional Bose gas in an optical lattice. From the momentum distribution we extract the condensed fraction of the gas and thereby measure the depletion of the condensate and compare it with a theorical estimate. We have measured the coherence length of the gas for systems with average occupation n̄ > 1 and n̄ < 1 per lattice site. 1 T...
