Abstract :
Laser radiation propagating through a hollow-core optical fiber exerts a central force on atoms and transports them through the fiber. This atom guide works as an atomic beam collimator that can continuously control the velocity and spatial distributions of the ejecting atoms via modulation of the laser parameters
