Title: Dispersion Management Using Betatron Resonances in an Ultracold-Atom Storage Ring
Abstract:Particles circulating at specific velocities in a storage ring can undergo betatron resonances at which static perturbations of the particles' orbit yield large transverse (betatron) oscillations. We ...Particles circulating at specific velocities in a storage ring can undergo betatron resonances at which static perturbations of the particles' orbit yield large transverse (betatron) oscillations. We have observed betatron resonances in an ultracold-atom storage ring and found these resonances to cause the near-elimination of the longitudinal dispersion of atomic beams propagating at resonant velocities. This effect can improve atom-interferometric devices. Both the resonant velocities and the resonance strengths were varied by deliberate modifications to the storage ring.Read More
