Single-impulse magnetic focusing of launched cold atoms
This thesis concerns the use of pulsed magnetic lenses with cold atoms. Specifically, an experiment was designed and built to focus a launched cloud of cold rubidium atoms. An atomic fountain was realised, based on launching a compact cold cloud of atoms using the technique of moving molasses. Analy...
