This volume comprises a collection of invited and selected contributions presented at the 16th International Conference on Laser Spectroscopy in Palm Cove, Queensland, Australia, 13-18 July 2003. The papers report developments in laser spectroscopy and related areas including: new ultra-precise spectroscopic measurements based on optical frequency combs including tests of the stability of the fundamental constants; the first successful production of cold antihydrogen; the first realization of Bose-Einstein condensation in cesium and ytterbium; the behaviour of ultra-cold bosons and fermions in optical lattices; the production of ultra-cold cesium, helium and fermionic lithium molecules; the production and coherent transport of ultra-cold atoms in microtraps on the surface of chips; the implementation of one- and two-qubit quantum algorithms and experiments towards a scalable quantum computer based on trapped ions; and new medical applications of laser spectroscopy.

Optical traps for Ultracold Metastable Helium atoms

Juliette Simonet

The thematics treated in this manuscript illustrate two specificities of ultracold metastable Helium gases: the ability to compare experimental measurement with precise theoretical evaluations (simplicity of the atomic structure) and to easily detect products of Penning ionisations. We present the building and the characterisation of a novel magnetic trap with large optical access, allowing to combine the production of a Bose-Einstein condensate with its in situ loading into a 3D optical lattice. The theoretical fundaments of the experiments planned in those optical potentials are then detailed. In a crossed dipole trap, the influence of the magnetic field, now a free parameter, on the Penning collision rates can be measured and compared to a new theoretical evaluation. Concerning Helium in optical lattices, two subjects are developped: the effect of the confinement on the inelastic Penning collisions (1D optical lattice) and the modelisation of the Penning losses via a dissipative Bose-Hubbard model (3D lattice). Finally we present the first direct measurement of the dipolar magnetic transition 23S1 to 23P2, linking the singlet and triplet families in Helium 4. This spectroscopy experiment, realised in collaboration with the group of W. Vassen (LaserLab - Amsterdam), combines cold atoms knowledge with the frequency comb technique, in order to reach an accuracy of 5 kHz.

This text includes all the recent advances in the field of laser spectroscopy. Major results span from the control of matter by electromagnetic fields (trapping and coding) to high precision measurements on simple atomic systems and to quantum optics with single atoms. It includes a report of the Bose-Einstein condensation achieved by laser-cooling of rubidium atoms. Achievements in the technology of tunable sources, in particular of miniaturized solid state devices, are also reported. Most recent advances in molecular spectroscopy are illustrated with emphasis on cooled spectra, clusters and high accuracy frequency references. Topics such as atomic interferometry and microcavity quantum optics are also covered.
