AB - We have measured the damped motion of a trapped Bose–Einstein condensate, oscillating withrespect to a thermal cloud. The cigar-shaped trapping potential provides enough transverseconfinement that the dynamics of the system are intermediate between three-dimensional and onedimensional.We find that the scaling of the damping rate with temperature is consistent with Landautheory, but that the damping rate for axial oscillations at a given temperature is consistently smallerthan expected for a three-dimensional gas. We attribute this to the suppressed density of states forlow-energy transverse excitations(essential excitations for axial Landau damping), which results fromthe quantization of the radial motion.
