Abstract
Phonons with wave vector q/(planck constant) were optically imprinted into a Bose-Einstein condensate. Their momentum distribution was analyzed using Bragg spectroscopy with a high momentum transfer. The wave function of the phonons was shown to be a superposition of +q and -q free particle momentum states, in agreement with the Bogoliubov quasiparticle picture.Year: 2002 PMID: 11863793 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.88.060402
