Imaging topology of Hofstadter ribbons
Dina Genkina, Lauren M. Aycock, Hsin-I Lu +3
Physical systems with non-trivial topological order find direct applications in metrology[1] and promise future applications in quantum computing[2,3]. The quantum Hall effect deri…
Brownian motion of solitons in a Bose-Einstein Condensate
L. M. Aycock, H. M. Hurst, D. K. Efimkin +4
For the first time, we observed and controlled the Brownian motion of solitons. We launched solitonic excitations in highly elongated BECs and showed that a dilute b…
Direct observation of Feshbach enhanced -wave scattering of fermions
Dina Genkina, Lauren M. Aycock, Benjamin K. Stuhl +3
We directly measured the normalized -wave scattering cross-section of ultracold atoms across a magnetic-field Feshbach resonance by colliding pairs of degener…
Geometrical pumping with a Bose-Einstein condensate
Hsin-I Lu, Max Schemmer, Lauren M. Aycock +3
We realized a quantum geometric "charge" pump for a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in the lowest Bloch band of a novel bipartite magnetic lattice. Topological charge pumps in fille…
Magnetic Trapping of Molecules via Optical Loading and Magnetic Slowing
Hsin-I Lu, Ivan Kozyryev, Boerge Hemmerling +2
Calcium monofluoride (CaF) is magnetically slowed and trapped using optical pumping. Starting from a collisionally cooled slow beam, CaF with an initial velocity of ~ 30 m/s is slo…
The Buffer Gas Beam: An Intense, Cold, and Slow Source for Atoms and Molecules
Nicholas R. Hutzler, Hsin-I Lu, John M. Doyle
Beams of atoms and molecules are stalwart tools for spectroscopy and studies of collisional processes. The supersonic expansion technique can create cold beams of many species of a…
