Description of Research
"Multidisciplinary investigations using state-selected atoms"
We are a (largely) experimental atomic physics research group. We apply atomic physics techniques to a wide range of problems, including:
* precise tests of physical laws and symmetries;
* the development of atomic clocks;
* biomedical and materials science investigations using
laser-polarized noble gas nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR);
* laser spectroscopy of coherently-prepared atomic media,
with applications to quantum information;
* low-energy atomic collisions; and
* theoretical investigations of Bose-Einstein Condensates.
Abstracts for recent research results
