Optimization of collisional Feshbach cooling of an ultracold nondegenerate gas

Marlon Nuske, Eite Tiesinga, L. Mathey

We optimize a collision-induced cooling process for ultracold atoms in the nondegenerate regime. It makes use of a Feshbach resonance, instead of rf radiation in evaporative coolin…

A Michelson-Morley Test of Lorentz Symmetry for Electrons

T. Pruttivarasin, M. Ramm, S. G. Porsev +4

All evidence so far suggests that the absolute spatial orientation of an experiment never affects its outcome. This is reflected in the Standard Model of physics by requiring all p…
