Description | We found additional resonances for cavity-mediated laser cooling which have not yet been considered in the literature and which might help to cool especially many particles to very low temperatures. We now try to extend the proposed cooling scheme to the case of many particles and to point out interesting effects. As a result we found a scheme for the collective cooling of an atomic gas inside an asymmetric trap. Our work shows that coherences can significantly enhance the cooling process. Many new ideas for more powerful cooling schemes arose from our work. |
