A theoretical study of optical detection methods for ultracold atoms in optical lattices
This thesis presents a theoretical analysis of light scattered from atoms trapped in optical lattices. The work presented here focuses on the case in which atoms trapped in an optical lattice are described by a Hubbard model. It is shown that the scattered light can be used to probe the ground state...
