An investigation of non-Brownian random walks in an optical lattice using polarization-selective intensity correlations

POSTER

Abstract

We propose that Levy walks by cold atoms trapped in a near-resonance shallow optical lattice may be detected by measuring the polarization-selective intensity correlations of the scattered light. Experimental progress is reported.
