Abstract:

We have measured the time taken for a magnetically trapped cloud of cold cesium atoms in the (F =3,mF=-3) ground state to rethermalize from a nonequilibrium spatial and velocity distribution. From these measurements we infer the dependences of the elastic scattering cross section on temperature and magnetic field in the ranges 1 - 30 μΚ and 0.05-2.0 mT, respectively. We determine a lower bound on the magnitude of the (3,-3) + (3,-3) s-wave scattering length of 940a0.

The search for extra dimensions

Abstract:

Steven Abel and John March-Russell discuss whether three dimensions exist in the universe and how they can be detected. Explaining why the cosmological constant is so small has occupied cosmologists and particle physicists ever since Einstein first introduced it. Many proponents of the brane-world picture are tackling this problem again. A typical process might involve a proton and antiproton colliding to produce a single spray or jet of particles plus a graviton, which is emitted into the bulk. The particles that are confined to the brane also have Kaluza - Klein or higher string-excitation states, but for them the relevant scale is either the brane thickness or the new fundamental string scale. Both of these scales should correspond in energy to the new gravity scale of 1000 GeV or higher.
