摘要: We demonstrate tomographic reconstruction of the phase space distribution atoms oscillating in a harmonic trap with weak potential corrugation caused by nanoscale imperfections an atom chip. find that deformations these distributions are highly sensitive to anharmonic components potential. They explained terms angular velocity dispersion isoenergetic trajectories. show method is applicable for probing classical and quantum dynamics cold atoms, we note its importance future technological applications.
