Abstract:Interferometric measurement of an atom's velocity allows, by tailoring the impulse imparted by the matterwave-splitting laser pulses, a velocity-dependent force that cools an atomic sample. Differential measurement reveals the sample's acceleration and rotation.OCIS codes: (020.1335) Atom optics; (020.3320) Laser cooling; (120.5790) Sagnac effect; (120.7250) Velocimetry
