Abstract

The recently developed magnetic encoding beam microscopy approach to imaging with neutral atomic beams has a spatial resolution that is limited by the spread of velocities within the beam. Here we present a solution for overcoming this restriction which is based on adding a homogeneous magnetic fiel...
