Abstract
We have performed quantum nondemolition measurements on the collective spin
of similar to 10(6) cesium atoms. In this way ensembles of atoms with sub-
shot-noise fluctuations of a collective spin have been prepared. These obse
rvations open the way toward the generation of squeezed spin states of atom
s. [S1050-2947(99)03609-4].
