Coherent control over the high-dimensional space of the nuclear spin of alkaline-earth atoms
Husain Ahmed, Andrea Litvinov, Pauline Guesdon +5
We demonstrate coherent manipulation of the nuclear degrees of freedom of ultracold ground-state strontium 87 atoms, thus providing a toolkit for fully exploiting the corresponding…
Adiabatic spin-dependent momentum transfer in an SU(N) degenerate Fermi gas
P. Bataille, A. Litvinov, I. Manai +7
We introduce a spin-orbit coupling scheme, where a retro-reflected laser beam selectively diffracts two spin components in opposite directions. Spin sensitivity is provided by swee…
Note on the reflectance of mirrors exposed to a strontium beam
J. Huckans, W. Dubosclard, E. Maréchal +3
The high chemical reactivity of strontium, which can opacify a viewport exposed to a strontium atomic source, is a concern for some atomic physics experiments where it is sometimes…
Cooling of a Bose-Einstein Condensate by spin distillation
Bruno Naylor, Etienne Marechal, John Huckans +4
We propose and experimentally demonstrate a new cooling mechanism leading to purification of a spinor Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC). Our scheme starts with a BEC polarized in the…
Dipolar atomic spin ensembles in a double-well potential
A. de Paz, B. Naylor, J. Huckans A. Carrance +5
We experimentally study the spin dynamics of mesoscopic ensembles of ultracold magnetic spin-3 atoms located in two separated wells of an optical dipole trap. We use a radio-freque…
Non-equilibrium quantum magnetism in a dipolar lattice gas
Aurelie de Paz, Arijit Sharma, Amodsen Chotia +7
Research on quantum magnetism with ultra-cold gases in optical lattices is expected to open fascinating perspectives for the understanding of fundamental problems in condensed-matt…
