Enhancing the capture velocity of a Dy magneto-optical trap with two-stage slowing

William Lunden, Li Du, Michael Cantara +3

Magneto-optical traps (MOTs) based on the $626\mathrm{nm}$, $136\mathrm{kHz}$-wide intercombination line of Dy, which has an attractively low Doppler temperature of $3.3\mu \mathrm{K}$,…
