Abstract

We provide an analysis of the radial structure of TE and TM modes of the Maxwell fisheye lens, by means of Maxwell equations as applied to the fisheye case. Choosing a lens of size R = 1 cm, we plot some of the modes in the infrared range.

Analytic Description of the Motion of a Trapped Ion in an Even or Odd Coherent State

A completely analytic description is given of the motion of a trapped ion which is in either an even or an odd coherent state. Comparison to recent theoretical and experimental work is made.

Direct Probing of Quantum Phase Space by Photon Counting

We propose a very simple experimental setup to measure, via photon counting, the overlap of the Wigner functions characterizing two single mode light beams. We show that this scheme can be applied to determine directly the phase space quasiprobability distribution of the single mode field and in a certain limit the Wigner function can be measured without use of tomographic reconstruction algorithms. The deleterious effects of non--unit photodetector efficiency are analyzed.

Can We Distinguish Between the Grand Canonical and the Canonical Ensemble in a BEC Experiment?

It is well known that at the thermodynamic limit there are no observable differences in the results obtained by grand canonical and canonical descriptions of a many-body system. In the present paper, we test the validity of this statement for finite systems using as an example an ensemble of bosons trapped in a 1D harmonic potential well. We have found an analytical formula for the canonical partition function and shown that, for 100 trapped atoms, the discrepancy between the grand canonical and canonical predictions for the condensate fraction reaches 10% in the vicinity of the Bose-Einstein threshold. This discrepancy decreases only logarithmically as the number of atoms increases. Furthermore we investigate numerically the case of a 3D "cigar-shape" trap in the range of parameters corresponding to current BEC experiments.
