Michael L. Wall, Kaden R. A. Hazzard, and Ana Maria Rey

Phys. Rev. A 92, 013610 (2015) - Published 8 July, 2015

An approach to calculating eigenfunctions of particles in nonseparable optical potentials is presented, and it is shown that parameters such as tunneling and interaction matrix elements can be significantly different from their separable counterparts.

Phase shift due to atom-atom interactions in a light-pulse atom interferometer

Raphaël Jannin, Pierre Cladé, and Saïda Guellati-Khélifa

Phys. Rev. A 92, 013616 (2015) - Published 13 July, 2015

A procedure for determining the phase shift induced by atom-atom interactions in a light-pulse atom interferometer is described, and it is shown that this shift can have substantial effects on the precision of the measurements and the applicability of certain types of interferometer set-ups to particular types of measurements.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Phase-selective quantum eraser

A. Heuer, G. Pieplow, and R. Menzel

Phys. Rev. A 92, 013803 (2015) - Published 2 July, 2015

A method capable of accessing the ultra-small-angle x-ray-scattering distribution of a sample from two-dimensional raster scans is developed, which promises to have applications in various fields of material science as well as biological imaging.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Spin separations in the spin Hall effect of light

Jin-Li Ren, Bo Wang, Meng-Meng Pan, Yun-Feng Xiao, Qihuang Gong, and Yan Li

Phys. Rev. A 92, 013839 (2015) - Published 22 July, 2015

The so-called spin Hall effect of light, the transverse splitting of the left circularly polarized and right circularly polarized components of light with initially linear polarization, is investigated, and the coherent superposition of two sub-components with different shifts in each component that leads to the observed phenomena is elucidated.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Photon-correlation measurements of atomic-cloud temperature using an optical nanofiber

J. A. Grover, P. Solano, L. A. Orozco, and S. L. Rolston

Phys. Rev. A 92, 013850 (2015) - Published 28 July, 2015

A method to measure the temperature of a cold atomic cloud is developed by relating atoms’ motion to fluorescence photons emitted into an optical nanofiber, where the temperature readout from the temporal correlations of the photons agrees well with standard time-of-flight measurements.
