Three-body recombination in a three-state Fermi gas with widely tunable interactions
J. H. Huckans, J. R. Williams, E. L. Hazlett +2
We investigate the stability of a three spin state mixture of ultracold fermionic Li atoms over a range of magnetic fields encompassing three Feshbach resonances. For most fiel…
Preparing a highly degenerate Fermi gas in an optical lattice
J. R. Williams, J. H. Huckans, R. W. Stites +2
We propose a method to prepare a sample of fermionic atoms in a three-dimensional (3D) optical lattice at unprecedentedly low temperatures and uniform filling factors. The process…
Strongly inhibited transport of a 1D Bose gas in a lattice
C. D. Fertig, K. M. O'Hara, J. H. Huckans +3
We report the observation of strongly damped dipole oscillations of a quantum degenerate 1D atomic Bose gas in a combined harmonic and optical lattice potential. Damping is signifi…
Observation of Reduced Three-Body Recombination in a Fermionized 1D Bose Gas
B. Laburthe Tolra, K. M. O'Hara, J. H. Huckans +3
We investigate correlation properties of a one-dimensional interacting Bose gas by loading a magnetically trapped 87-Rb Bose-Einstein condensate into a deep two-dimensional optical…
Unitarity-Limited Elastic Collision Rate in a Harmonically-Trapped Fermi Gas
M. E. Gehm, S. L. Hemmer, K. M. O'Hara +1
We derive the elastic collision rate for a harmonically-trapped Fermi gas in the extreme unitarity limit where the s-wave scattering cross section is , with …
Observation of a Strongly-Interacting Degenerate Fermi Gas of Atoms
K. M. O'Hara, S. L. Hemmer, M. E. Gehm +2
We report on the observation of a highly-degenerate, strongly-interacting Fermi gas of atoms. Fermionic Li atoms in an optical trap are evaporatively cooled to degeneracy using…
