Coherent Dynamics of Bose-Einstein Condensates in a 1d Optical Lattice
Abstract
Bose-Einstein condensates in the combined potential of a harmonic trap and a 1D optical lattice allow us to investigate the coherent atomic current in an array of Josephson junctions and to study the density-dependent critical velocity for the breakdown of superfluid motion.
