Investigation of the van der waals interactions in a Bose-Einstein condensate via electromagnetically-induced transparency
This thesis focusses on the development of the experimental system used to study the eff ect of Rydberg blockade interactions in clouds of ultracold atoms and quantum degenerate gases. Initial measurements have been performed quantifying these interactions, like the Rydberg blockade radius and its v...
