Abstract :
The Berry phase of atom for partial cycles of rotating magnetic field in parameter space was successfully measured free from the dynamical phase shift by using a time-domain sodium atom interferometer. The obtained phase shift was in an agreement with the prediction of Berry´s phase for partial cycles.
