Atomlaser
Atomlaser 3D No. 1
Three dimensional rendering of an Atom Laser beams emitted from a Bose-Einstein condensate. The higher the peak, the higher the density at this position.
Atomlaser 3D No. 2
Atomlaser 3D No. 3
Atomlaser 2D
Absorption images of an Atom Laser at the phase transition. Matter wave beams emitted from a thermal cloud (left), from a partly condensed cloud (middle) and for an almost fully condensed cloud (right).
Matter Wave Interference of Two Atom Laser Beams
Interference pattern of two matter wave beams emitted from an incoherent thermal source (left), from a partly condensed source (middle) and from a fully condensed cloud (right). Note the high contrast of the interference pattern in (c) !
