Probing open- and closed-channel p-wave resonances

Denise J. M. Ahmed-Braun, Kenneth G. Jackson, Scott Smale +5

We study the near-threshold molecular and collisional physics of a strong K p-wave Feshbach resonance through a combination of measurements, numerical calculations, and mode…

Observation of a Transition Between Dynamical Phases in a Quantum Degenerate Fermi Gas

Scott Smale, Peiru He, Ben A. Olsen +6

A proposed paradigm for out-of-equilibrium quantum systems is that an analogue of quantum phase transitions exists between parameter regimes of qualitatively distinct time-dependen…

Precision measurement of the -asymmetry in spin-polarized decay

B. Fenker, A. Gorelov, D. Melconian +13

Using TRIUMF's neutral atom trap, TRINAT, for nuclear decay, we have measured the asymmetry with respect to the initial nuclear spin in to be $A_β=-0.5707…

Observation of quantum-limited spin transport in strongly interacting two-dimensional Fermi gases

C. Luciuk, S. Smale, F. Böttcher +5

We measure the transport properties of two-dimensional ultracold Fermi gases during transverse demagnetization in a magnetic field gradient. Using a phase-coherent spin-echo sequen…

Precision measurement of the nuclear polarization in laser-cooled, optically pumped

Benjamin Fenker, John A. Behr, Dan Melconian +18

We report a measurement of the nuclear polarization of laser-cooled, optically-pumped atoms which will allow us to precisely measure angular correlation parameter…

Evidence for universal relations describing a gas with -wave interactions

C. Luciuk, S. Trotzky, S. Smale +3

Thermodynamics provides powerful constraints on physical and chemical systems in equilibrium. However, non-equilibrium dynamics depends explicitly on microscopic properties, requir…

Observation of the Leggett-Rice effect in a unitary Fermi gas

S. Trotzky, S. Beattie, C. Luciuk +6

We observe that the diffusive spin current in a strongly interacting degenerate Fermi gas of K precesses about the local magnetization. As predicted by Leggett and Rice, pre…

Progress towards precision measurements of beta-decay correlation parameters using atom and ion traps

D. Melconian, R. S. Behling, B. Fenker +9

The correlations of the decay products following the beta decay of nuclei have a long history of providing a low-energy probe of the fundamental symmetries of our universe. Over ha…
