Stability of Einstein Manifolds
This thesis deals with Einstein metrics and the Ricci flow on compact mani- folds. We study the second variation of the Einstein-Hilbert functional on Ein- stein metrics. In the first part of the work, we find curvature conditions which ensure the stability of Einstein manifolds with respect to the …

Einstein constraints gluing and toroidal cusps
… mean curvature initial data sets to the vacuum Einstein Field Equations, obtaining new initial data on the joined manifold. The new data set is arbitrarily close to the original data set outside of the gluing region, controlled by the length of the neck joining the manifolds. This approach is …

Quantum metrology with Bose-Einstein condensates
… in particular rotation measurements using Bose-Einstein condensates, that are robust to losses. We begin by describing how, by loading a Bose-Einstein condensate into an optical ring lattice, multiport beam splitters are created through a simple raising and lowering of potential barriers between …

Bose-Einstein-Kondensate in Mikrochip-Fallen
… Arbeit wird die erstmalige Erzeugung eines Bose-Einstein-Kondensats in einer Mikrochip-Falle beschrieben; dies ist eine Magnetfalle für Neutralatome, die mithilfe stromführender Leiterbahnen auf einem Chipsubstrat gebildet wird. Die Eigenschaften dieser Chipfallen, speziell die hohen …

Quantum reflection of Bose-Einstein Condensates
… developments in atom optics have brought Bose-Einstein condensates within 1 pm of solid surfaces where the atom-surface interactions can no longer be ignored. At long- range, the atom-surface interaction is described by the weakly attractive Casimir-Polder potential which is classically …

Radiation field for Einstein vacuum equations
… the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Einstein Vacuum equations, which are close to Minkowski space, at null infinity. By imposing harmonic gauge, the Einstein Vacuum equations reduce to a system of quasilinear wave equations on R"j". We show that if the space dimension n > 5 the Moller …

Coherent decay of Bose-Einstein condensates
… form of matter known to exist, atomic Bose-Einstein condensates are unique forms of matter where the constituent atoms lose their individual identities, becoming absorbed into the cloud as a whole. Effectively, these gases become a single macroscopic object that inherits its properties …

Tunneling Dynamics of a Bose-Einstein Condensate
The simplicity and versatility of ultra-cold atoms make it an ideal system for studying Quantum Mechanical phenomenon like tunneling. This thesis describes progress towards experimentally measuring the time spent by a tunneling particle in the classically forbidden region. A detailed analysis of …

Series expansion of the Modified Einstein Procedure
… total sediment discharge based on the Modified Einstein Procedure (MEP). A new procedure based on the Series Expansion of the Modified Einstein Procedure (SEMEP) has been developed. This procedure contains four main modifications to MEP. First, SEMEP solves the Einstein integrals quickly and …

Bogoliubov Excitations of Inhomogeneous Bose-Einstein Condensates
… part deals with repulsively interacting Bose-Einstein condensates in speckle disorder potentials. In the Bogoliubov approach, the many-body problem is split into the Gross-Pitaevskii condensate (mean-field) and the Bogoliubov excitations, which are bosonic quasiparticles. The disorder …

Atomlaser und Phasenkohärenz atomarer Bose-Einstein-Kondensate
… Auskopplung von Atomen aus einem atomaren Bose-Einstein-Kondensat berichtet. Es wurde so eine kohärente Strahlquelle für Materiewellen entwickelt, die aufgrund ihrer Analogie zu der Erzeugung von Licht in einem Laser als Atomlaser bezeichnet wird. In einer neu entwickelten magnetischen …

Manipulating Bose-Einstein condensates with laser light
A dilute gas Bose-Einstein condensate was probed and manipulated by off-resonant laser beams. Spontaneous and stimulated off-resonant light scatterings were studied experimentally. Stimulated, two-photon Bragg scattering was used for spectroscopic measurement of the mean-field energy and of the …
