Collisions between tunable halo dimers: exploring an elementary four-body process with identical bosons
F. Ferlaino, S. Knoop, M. Mark +4
We study inelastic collisions in a pure, trapped sample of Feshbach molecules made of bosonic cesium atoms in the quantum halo regime. We measure the relaxation rate coefficient fo…
Metastable Feshbach Molecules in High Rotational States
S. Knoop, M. Mark, F. Ferlaino +4
We experimentally demonstrate Cs2 Feshbach molecules well above the dissociation threshold, which are stable against spontaneous decay on the timescale of one second. An optically…
Two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical surface trap
D. Rychtarik, B. Engeser, H. -C. Nägerl +1
We report on the creation of a two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate of cesium atoms in a gravito-optical surface trap. The condensate is produced a few micrometer above a diele…
Evanescent-wave trapping and evaporative cooling of an atomic gas near two-dimensionality
M. Hammes, D. Rychtarik, B. Engeser +2
A dense gas of cesium atoms at the crossover to two-dimensionality is prepared in a highly anisotropic surface trap that is realized with two evanescent light waves. Temperatures a…
