abstract

• Electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT) underpins the phenomenon of slow light. We extend EIT to a Raman photoassociation system with controllable collision velocities, and investigate transparency windows and reduced group velocities for colliding ultracold atom clouds. © 2006 Optical Society of America.
