Description:
Author(s): Jean-Félix Riou, Aaron Reinhard, Laura A. Zundel, and David S. Weiss We derive a general expression for the spontaneous-emission-induced transition rates between the atomic states of atoms trapped in far-detuned optical potentials, taking into account both their internal and external degrees of freedom. We apply this result to atoms trapped in deep optical lattices. ... [Phys. Rev. A 86, 033412] Published Tue Sep 11, 2012
