Double species condensate with tunable interspecies interactions
G. Thalhammer, G. Barontini, L. De Sarlo +3
We produce Bose-Einstein condensates of two different species, Rb and K, in an optical dipole trap in proximity of interspecies Feshbach resonances. We discover and c…
Degenerate Bose-Bose mixture in a three-dimensional optical lattice
J. Catani, L. De Sarlo, G. Barontini +2
We produce a heteronuclear quantum degenerate mixture of two bosonic species, Rb and K, in a three-dimensional optical lattice. On raising the lattice barriers, we ob…
Collisional properties of sympathetically cooled K
L. De Sarlo, P. Maioli, G. Barontini +3
We report the experimental evidence of the sympathetic cooling of K with Rb down to 1 K, obtained in a novel tight confining magnetic trap. This allowed us to perf…
Intense slow beams of bosonic potassium isotopes
J. Catani, P. Maioli, L. De Sarlo +2
We report on an experimental realization of a two-dimensional magneto-optical trap (2D-MOT) that allows the generation of cold atomic beams of 39K and 41K bosonic potassium isotope…
Unstable regimes for a Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice
L. De Sarlo, L. Fallani, J. E. Lye +4
We report on the experimental characterization of energetic and dynamical instability, two mechanisms responsible for the breakdown of Bloch waves in a Bose-Einstein condensate int…
