Phys. Rev. A 68, 013611 (2003) [13 pages]Influence of nonadiabaticity and nonlinearity on the operation of cold-atom beam splittersReceived 26 March 2003; published 25 July 2003 The operation of cold-atom beam splitters is analyzed in the context of Bose-Einstein condensate interferometry. We introduce two representative geometries of the splitting region and study influence of nonlinearity and nonadiabaticity on the splitting and the recombination of the condensate for both geometries. © 2003 The American Physical Society URL:
