(English) Among the fundamental constituents of matter, charged particles such electrons and positrons are leading protagonists in physical phenomena associated with small (~ meV) and high (~ MeV) energy ...
Ortiz de Orruño Cuesta, Unai (Date of defense: 2023-04-21)
(English) Nowadays, being able to precisely characterize nanoparticles is of key relevance in a wide range of scenarios. For instance, chemical and pharmaceutical industries often rely in particle-sizing ...
Dubost, Brice (Date of defense: 2012-11-26)
(English) The study of quantum light-matter interaction with atomic ensembles is an active research area. This kind of system allows fundamental studies on measurement in the context of continuous ...
Behbood, Naeimeh (Date of defense: 2015-04-17)
(English) This thesis describes the generation of macroscopic spin singlets in a cold atomic ensemble by performing quantum non-demolition measurement. Toward this goal we have implemented a realtime ...
Alves, Natália Domingues (Date of defense: 2023-06-16)
(English) This thesis studies, using simulation and experiment, the motional dynamics of a single atom in an optical dipole trap. The optical dipole trap we study is a single-beam, red-detuned, ...
