Fano Resonance and Quantum Localization of a Bose-Einstein condensate in an Optical Lattice

Joachim Brand

We consider the localization of matter waves in an optical lattice due to nonlinear interactions. We show that even below classical thresholds, localization is still possible due to quantum fluctuations or 'entanglement' between constituent bosons. Furthermore, we point out that interesting Fano resonances in the scattering of single atoms on such localized states may occur due to coherent interactions with the matter-wave field.

Nonlinear matter-wave optics of bosons and fermions

Pierre Meystre

We briefly review some recent developments in nonlinear atom optics. Basic principles, as well as some of the early effects predicted and observed in the nonlinear optics of bosonic atoms, are presented in general terms. Recent results on fermionic four-wave mixing and on the matter-wave analogue of optical second-harmonic generation are discussed in detail.
