Flux lattices reformulated
We theoretically explore the optical flux lattices produced for ultra-cold atoms subject to laser fields where both the atom–light coupling and the effective detuning are spatially periodic. We analyze the geometric vector potential and the magnetic flux it generates, as well as the accompanying geo...
