Ultra-cold atomic magnetometry : realisation and test of a 87Rb BEC for high-sensitivity magnetic field measurements

The development of an experimental apparatus to produce Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) of 87Rb atoms and their application to magnetometry are discussed. Optical detection of atomic Larmor precession is a widely explored method for high-sensitivity measurements of magnetic fields. In this context,...
