Dynamics in cold atomic gases : resonant behaviour of the quantum delta-kicked accelerator and Bose-Einstein condensates in ring traps
In this thesis, the dynamics of cold, trapped atomic gases are investigated, and the prospects for exploiting their nonlinear dynamics for inertial sensing are discussed. In the first part, the resonant and antiresonant dynamics of the atom-optical quantum delta-kicked accelerator with an initial sy...
