DAMOP Student Symposium 2009
(2009-05-27)Presentation given at the student symposium for DAMOP 2009, Charlottesville, VA, May 21 2009. Includes an introduction to Rydberg physics with a description of recent experiments done at the University of Wisconsin -
Dynamics of Low Density Rydberg Gases
(2008-06-09)A state-dependent stimulated emission probe was used to investigate the coherent and dynamic properties of cold Rydberg atoms. 87Rb atoms were excited to various nl Rydberg states from a MOT via continuous two-photon ... -
He 1s2s Energies
(2014-01-17)This Mathematica notebook demonstrates how to calculate fairly accurate He energy levels using undergraduate level quantum mechanics. It is intended to accompany the manuscript "Accurate Binding Energy of the He Atom with ... -
He 1s^2 Pertubation Theory
(2013-09-02)This Mathematica notebook accompanies the paper "Accurate Binding Energy of the He Atom with Undergraduate Quantum Mechanics". The notebook contains the calculations described in that paper. -
Non-Degenerate Four-Wave Mixing through Rydberg States in a MOT
(2007-07-02)In this work, we use a three-photon near-resonant process in a laser-cooled Rb vapor to achieve phase-matched four-wave mixing using an intermediate Rydberg state. Rydberg atoms in the 36D5/2 state are efficiently produced ... -
Physics Challenges for Spin-Exchange Optical Pumping of He-3
(2009-05-28)Presentation given at the "Physics and Applications of Polarized Noble Gases" workshop at the University of Virginia, May 19, 2009. -
A Portable SERF Magnetometer for Biomagnetic Measurements
(2009-09-10)Recent developments on the UW SERF magnetometer. -
A Portable Ultrasensitive SERF Atomic Magnetometer for Biomagnetic Measurements
(2007-07-02)We present a portable Rb cell atomic magnetometer suited for biomagnetic measurements. Working in the spin-exchange relaxation free regime, we demonstrate an initial white noise floor of 60 fT/sqrt {Hz}. We show an adult ... -

(2009-09-10)We present a portable Rb cell atomic magnetometer suited for biomagnetic measurements. Working in the spin-exchange relaxation free regime, we demonstrate an initial white noise floor of 60 fT$/\sqrt {Hz} $. We show an ... -
RayTrace
(1998-03-13)This applet traces paraxial light rays through a user-specified system of up to 12 ideal thin lenses and apertures, allowing many simple optical instruments to be modelled. Three examples are given: coupling of light from ... -
Ultrasensitive Atomic Magnetometers
(2009-09-10)We have developed a novel, small-volume portable single-channel atomic biomagnetometer and have used it to detect adult MCG signals. The cryogenic-free magnetometer has sufficiently high sensitivity (20 fT/rt(Hz)) that ...
