Description:
Author(s): Andreas Dechant, David A. Kessler, and Eli Barkai We investigate the semiclassical phase-space probability distribution P ( x , p ) of cold atoms in a Sisyphus cooling lattice with an additional harmonic confinement. We pose the question of whether this nonequilibrium steady state satisfies the equivalence of energy and probability. This equivalence is … [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 173006] Published Fri Oct 23, 2015
