Ketterle Group Members Present More Invited Talks

The MIT group report several additional invited presentations at meetings this summer. Todd Gustavson presented "Recent experiments with Bose-Einstein condensates: Amplification of light and matter waves, superfluidity, and RF transitions in an optical trap"; at the 6th Workshop on Atom Optics and Interferometry in Cargese, Corse (France). Plus, at the Summer School on Bose-Einstein condensates and atom lasers, also at Cargese, PI Wolfgang Ketterle presented three lectures titled "Experiments on Bose-Einstein condensation." Lastly, at the Gordon Research Conference on Molecular Electronic Spectroscopy and Dynamics, Ketterle presented a talk titled "Optical Properties of a Bose-Einstein Condensate and Phase-Coherent Matter Wave Amplification."
