These were obtained after suddenly releasing the atoms from an optical lattice potential with different potential depths V0 after a time of flight of 15?ms. Values of V0 were: a, 0 Er; b, 3 Er; c, 7 Er; d, 10 Er; e, 13 Er; f, 14 Er; g, 16 Er; and h, 20 Er. M. Greiner et.al, Nature 415, 39 (2002) M. Greiner, O. Mandel. Theodor, W. Hansch I.
