1. Comparisons between classical and quantum mechanical nonlinear lattice models
Sammanfattning : In the mid-1920s, the great Albert Einstein proposed that at extremely low temperatures, a gas of bosonic particles will enter a new phase where a large fraction of them occupy the same quantum state. This state would bring many of the peculiar features of quantum mechanics, previously reserved for small samples consisting only of a few atoms or molecules, up to a macroscopic scale. LÄS MER
2. Theoretical studies of Bose-Hubbard and discrete nonlinear Schrödinger models : Localization, vortices, and quantum-classical correspondence
Sammanfattning : This thesis is mainly concerned with theoretical studies of two types of models: quantum mechanical Bose-Hubbard models and (semi-)classical discrete nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) models.Bose-Hubbard models have in the last few decades been widely used to describe Bose-Einstein condensates placed in periodic optical potentials, a hot research topic with promising future applications within quantum computations and quantum simulations.

3. Ions in cold electrostatic storage devices
Sammanfattning : We have constructed a compact purely electrostatic ion-beam trap, ConeTrap, which we have mounted inside a double-walled vacuum chamber. In the inner vacuum chamber, we can obtain ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions and reach thermal equilibrium at well controlled temperatures down to 10 K. LÄS MER
