Direct Laser Cooling of a Symmetric Top Molecule
Debayan Mitra, Nathaniel B. Vilas, Christian Hallas +6
We report direct laser cooling of a symmetric top molecule, reducing the transverse temperature of a beam of calcium monomethoxide (CaOCH) to mK while addressing tw…

1D Magneto-Optical Trap of Polyatomic Molecules
Louis Baum, Nathaniel B. Vilas, Christian Hallas +4
We demonstrate a 1D magneto-optical trap of the polar free radical calcium monohydroxide (CaOH). A quasi-closed cycling transition is established to scatter photons per…

Bad metallic transport in a cold atom Fermi-Hubbard system
Peter T. Brown, Debayan Mitra, Elmer Guardado-Sanchez +9
Charge transport is a revealing probe of the quantum properties of materials. Strong interactions can blur charge carriers resulting in a poorly understood "quantum soup". Here we…
