Bose-stimulated scattering off a cold atom trap

H. David Politzer

The angle and temperature dependence of the photon scattering rate for Bose-stimulated atom recoil transitions between occupied states is compared to diffraction and incoherent Rayleigh scattering near the Bose-Einstein transition for an optically thin trap in the limit of large particle number N. Each of these three processes has a range of angles and temperatures for which it dominates over the others by a divergent factor as N\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}.

Light-Wave Mixing and Scattering with Quantum Gases

L. Deng

We present a semi-classical theoretical framework on light-wave mixing and scattering in single-component quantum gases. We show that these optical processes originating from elementary excitations with dominant collective atomic recoil motion are stimulated Raman or hyper-Raman in nature. In the forward direction, the wave-mixing process, which is the most efficient process in normal gas, is strongly reduced by the condensate structure factor even though the Bogoliubov dispersion relation perfectly compensates the optical-wave phase mismatch. In the backward direction, however, the free-particle-like condensate structure factor and Bogoliubov dispersion result in highly efficient light-wave mixing and collective atomic recoil motion that are enhanced by a stimulated hyper-Raman gain and a very narrow two-photon motional state resonance.

Excitation of Phonons in a Bose-Einstein Condensate by Light Scattering

Dan Stamper-Kurn, A. P. Chikkatur, Axel Görlitz +4 more

Stimulated small-angle light scattering was used to measure the structure factor of a Bose-Einstein condensate in the phonon regime. The excitation strength for phonons was found to be significantly reduced from that of free particles, revealing the presence of correlated pair excitations and quantum depletion in the condensate. The Bragg resonance line strength and line shift agreed with predictions for the homogeneous Bose gas using a local density approximation.
