Noise-free generation of bright matter-wave solitons (2018)
Journal Article
Edmonds, M., Billam, T., Gardiner, S., & Busch, T. (2018). Noise-free generation of bright matter-wave solitons. Physical Review A, 98(6), Article 063626. https://doi.org/10.1103/physreva.98.063626

We show how access to sufficiently flexible trapping potentials could be exploited in the generation of three-dimensional atomic bright matter-wave solitons. Our proposal provides a route towards producing bright solitonic states with good fidelity,... Read More about Noise-free generation of bright matter-wave solitons.

Creating Complex Optical Longitudinal Polarization Structures (2018)
Journal Article
Maucher, F., Skupin, S., Gardiner, S., & Hughes, I. (2018). Creating Complex Optical Longitudinal Polarization Structures. Physical Review Letters, 120(16), Article 163903. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.120.163903

In this Letter, we show that it is possible to structure the longitudinal polarization component of light. We illustrate our approach by demonstrating linked and knotted longitudinal vortex lines acquired upon nonparaxially propagating a tightly focu...

Spin-Orbit-Coupled Interferometry with Ring-Trapped Bose-Einstein Condensates (2018)
Journal Article
Helm, J., Billam, T., Rakonjac, A., Cornish, S., & Gardiner, S. (2018). Spin-Orbit-Coupled Interferometry with Ring-Trapped Bose-Einstein Condensates. Physical Review Letters, 120(6), Article 063201. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.120.063201

We propose a method of atom interferometry using a spinor Bose-Einstein condensate with a timevarying magnetic field acting as a coherent beam splitter. Our protocol creates long-lived superpositional counterflow states, which are of fundamental inte... Read More about Spin-Orbit-Coupled Interferometry with Ring-Trapped Bose-Einstein Condensates.
