    "abstract": "The strong evanescent field around ultra-thin unclad optical fibers bears a\nhigh potential for detecting, trapping, and manipulating cold atoms.\nIntroducing such a fiber into a cold atom cloud, we investigate the interaction\nof a small number of cold Caesium atoms with the guided fiber mode and with the\nfiber surface. Using high resolution spectroscopy, we observe and analyze\nlight-induced dipole forces, van der Waals interaction, and a significant\nenhancement of the spontaneous emission rate of the atoms. The latter can be\nassigned to the modification of the vacuum modes by the fiber.",
