abstract = "In this paper the effects of coupling a non-resonant optical lattice to a gas is studied. When the lattice induces a periodic modulation of the gas density, strong Bragg diffraction of light can occur. If a significant fraction of the light used to make the periodic structure is diffracted it can potentially limit the achievable intensities inside the lattice limiting the ability to manipulate the gas with the light. We calculate the evolution of the light fields by finding solutions to the wave equation with a periodic refractive index induced by the lattice. The local gas density perturbation induced by the lattice is determined by solution of the Boltzmann kinetic equation in the collisional regime. This allows us to predict the limits of gas transport within optical lattice. We discuss the maximum energy and momentum transfer to the gas from the lattice.",
