A unique feature of ultracold atoms is the separation of length scales, $r_0\ll k_F^{-1}$, where $k_F$ and $r_0$ are the Fermi momentum characterizing the average particle distance and the range of interaction between atoms respectively.…
In low energy atom-surface scattering, it is possible for the atom to be reflected in a region of attractive potential with no classical turning point. This phenomenon has come to be known as quantum reflection and it can reduce the…
We consider a nonclassical state generated by an atom-cavity field interaction in presence of a driven field. In the scheme, the two-level atom is moved through the cavity and driven by a classical field. The atom interacts dispersively…
