Absolute absorption on the potassium D lines: theory and experiment (2015)
Journal Article
Hanley, R. K., Gregory, P. D., Hughes, I. G., & Cornish, S. L. (2015). Absolute absorption on the potassium D lines: theory and experiment. Journal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, 48(19), Article 195004. https://doi.org/10.1088/0953-4075/48/19/195004

We present a detailed study of the absolute Doppler-broadened absorption of a probe beam scanned across the potassium D lines in a thermal vapour. Spectra using a weak probe were measured on the 4S $\to $ 4P transition and compared to the theoretical... Read More about Absolute absorption on the potassium D lines: theory and experiment.

A simple, versatile laser system for the creation of ultracold ground state molecules (2015)
Journal Article
Gregory, P., Molony, P., Köppinger, M., Kumar, A., Ji, Z., Lu, B., …Cornish, S. (2015). A simple, versatile laser system for the creation of ultracold ground state molecules. New Journal of Physics, 17, Article 055006. https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/17/5/055006

Paper Part of Focus on New Frontiers of Cold Molecules Research A narrow-linewidth, dual-wavelength laser system is vital for the creation of ultracold ground state molecules via stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) from a weakly bound Feshbac...

Sagnac interferometry using bright matter-wave solitons (2015)
Journal Article
Helm, J., Cornish, S., & Gardiner, S. (2015). Sagnac interferometry using bright matter-wave solitons. Physical Review Letters, 114(13), Article 134101. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevlett.114.134101

We use an effective one-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation to study bright matter-wave solitons held in a tightly confining toroidal trapping potential, in a rotating frame of reference, as they are split and recombined on narrow barrier potential...
