• Fabrication, Characterization and Application of High Density Gas Targets for Intense Laser Interaction Experiments 

  Tay, Yuan Yan (2019)

  We report on the generation and characterization of submillimetric Argon gas jets with peak density higher than 10^21 atoms/cm3 from capillary nozzles of varying throat diameter in the range of 50-450 μm. The use of gas ...

• ISOTOPE SHIFT SPECTROSCOPY OF ULTRACOLD STRONTIUM 

  Pisenti, Neal (2019)

  We describe the design, construction, and performance of a laser system to probe the ultra-narrow (Γ/2π ≈ mHz) clock transition 1S0 → 3P0 in strontium. We present the first reported spectroscopy of this transition in two ...

• Carrying Capacity of two-way coupled Earth–Human Systems 

  Motesharrei, Safa (2018)

  Over the last two centuries, the impact of the Human System has grown dramatically, becoming strongly dominant within the Earth System in many different ways. Consumption, inequality, and population have increased extremely ...

• SIGNATURE OF MAJORANA MODES AND ASPECTS OF THEIR BRAIDING 

  Nag, Amit (2018)

  Majorana zero modes are emergent zero-energy quasiparticle excitations in certain superconducting systems that can be viewed as fractionalized or “half” electrons. These quasiparticles obey non-Abelian braiding statistics ...

• Measuring topology of BECs in a synthetic dimensions lattice 

  Genkina, Dina (2019)

  We describe several experiments performed on a two species apparatus capable of producing Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of rubidium 87 and degenerate Fermi gases (DFGs) of potassium 40. We first describe computational ...
