We characterize the detector performance and the atom flux by analyzing the photon statistics. Near-perfect photon antibunching proves that single atoms are detected, and allows us to study the second-order intensity correlation function of the fluorescence over three orders of magnitude in atomic density.4 pages, 4 figuresQuantum PhysicsAtomic PhysicsAn integrated atom detector: single atoms and photon statisticstext
