Tuning the dipole-dipole interaction in a quantum gas with a rotating magnetic field

Yijun Tang, Wil Kao, Kuan-Yu Li +1

We demonstrate the tuning of the magnetic dipole-dipole interaction (DDI) within a dysprosium Bose-Einstein condensate by rapidly rotating the orientation of the atomic dipoles. Th…

Thermalization near integrability in a dipolar quantum Newton's cradle

Yijun Tang, Wil Kao, Kuan-Yu Li +5

Isolated quantum many-body systems with integrable dynamics generically do not thermalize when taken far from equilibrium. As one perturbs such systems away from the integrable poi…

Anisotropic dependence of tune-out wavelength near Dy 741-nm transition

Wil Kao, Yijun Tang, Nathaniel Q. Burdick +1

We report the first measurement of a tune-out wavelength for ground-state bosonic Dy and linearly polarized light. The tune-out wavelength measured is near the narrow-line 741-nm t…

Anisotropic collisions of dipolar Bose-Einstein condensates in the universal regime

Nathaniel Q. Burdick, Andrew G. Sykes, Yijun Tang +1

We report the measurement of collisions between two Bose-Einstein condensates with strong dipolar interactions. The collision velocity is significantly larger than the internal vel…

Anisotropic expansion of a thermal dipolar Bose gas

Yijun Tang, Andrew G. Sykes, Nathaniel Q. Burdick +3

We report on the anisotropic expansion of ultracold bosonic dysprosium gases at temperatures above quantum degeneracy and develop a quantitative theory to describe this behavior. T…

A long-lived spin-orbit-coupled degenerate dipolar Fermi gas

Nathaniel Q. Burdick, Yijun Tang, Benjamin L. Lev

We describe the creation of a long-lived spin-orbit-coupled gas of quantum degenerate atoms using the most magnetic fermionic element, dysprosium. Spin-orbit-coupling arises from a…

s-wave scattering lengths of the strongly dipolar bosons Dy and Dy

Yijun Tang, Andrew Sykes, Nathaniel Q. Burdick +2

We report the measurement of the triplet s-partial-wave scattering length of two bosonic isotopes of the highly magnetic element, dysprosium: for Dy and…

Bose-Einstein condensation of 162Dy and 160Dy

Yijun Tang, Nathaniel Q. Burdick, Kristian Baumann +1

We report Bose-Einstein condensation of two isotopes of the highly magnetic element dysprosium: 162Dy and 160Dy. For 162Dy, condensates with 10^5 atoms form below T = 50 nK. We fin…

Fermionic suppression of dipolar relaxation: Observation of universal inelastic dipolar scattering

Nathaniel Q. Burdick, Kristian Baumann, Yijun Tang +2

We observe the suppression of inelastic dipolar scattering in ultracold Fermi gases of the highly magnetic atom dysprosium: the more energy that is released, the less frequently th…

Effect of atmospheric environment on the attenuation coefficient of light in water

Juan Liu, Jiulin Shi, Yijun Tang +5

The attenuation coefficient of 532 nm light in water under different atmospheric conditions was investigated. Measurements were made over a two-year period at the same location and…
