Imaging Stokes Parameters of Spinor BECs
Justin T. Schultz, Azure Hansen, N. P. Bigelow
We present two methods to image the spin density and relative phases of states in spinor BECs. In a psuedo-spin-1/2 system, these measurements are analogous to the Stokes parameters used to describe polarization in optics.
