Cold atoms in optical lattices
This thesis describes the behaviour of cold atoms in optical lattices. In particular, it explores how transport through the energy bands of the optical lattice can be used to study quantum chaos and Bose-Einstein condensation. Firstly, this study examines the dynamics of ultra-cold sodium atoms in...
