Signatures of the superfluid to Mott-insulator transition in the excitation spectrum of ultracold atoms

We present a detailed analysis of the dynamical response of ultracold bosonic atoms in a one-dimensional optical lattice subjected to a periodic modulation of the lattice depth. Following the experimental realization by Stöferle et al (2004 Phys. Rev. Lett. 92 130403), we study the excitation spectr...
