US-France Cooperative Research: Cold Atom Dissertation Enhancement

0334050荷兰该论文增强奖支持美国和法国在理论原子，分子和光学物理学方面的合作研究，并涉及研究生约书亚N。米尔斯坦和他的导师，科罗拉多大学的默里·J·霍兰德，以及巴黎卡斯特勒·布罗斯尔高等师范学校（ENS）的克里斯托弗·所罗门。 该项目的重点是超冷原子气体中的受控相互作用。 本论文的研究解决了几个重要问题。 其中包括产生超流体费米气体所需的温度水平，对凝聚玻色气体中分子形成的影响，以及对所产生分子的利用。 ENS的实验室Kastler Brossel正在进行与学生关于超冷原子气体理论方面的论文直接相关的领先实验。 这些实验涉及使用新的双共振，这是理解超冷原子气体行为的基础。 该奖项为约书亚米尔斯坦访问法国四个月以及他参加在西班牙举行的冷原子气体国际会议提供了旅费和生活费。

0334050HollandThis dissertation enhancement award supports US-France cooperative research in theoretical atomic, molecular and optical physics and involves graduate student Joshua N. Milstein and his advisor, Murray J. Holland, of the University of Colorado and Christophe Salomon at the Laboratoire Kastler Brossel, Ecole Normal Superieure (ENS) in Paris. The project's focus is controlled interactions in ultra-cold atomic gases. This dissertation research addresses several important issues. Among them are the temperature level required to create a super-fluid Fermi gas, the effects on molecular formation within a condensed Bose gas, and exploitation of the generated molecules. ENS' Laboratoire Kastler Brossel is performing leading experiments directly related to the student's dissertation on the theoretical aspects of ultra-cold atomic gases. The experiments involve the use of novel double resonance that is fundamental to understanding the behavior of ultra-cold atomic gases. This NSF award provides travel and living expenses for a four-month visit to France by Joshua Milstein and for his participation in an international conference in Spain on cold atomic gases.
