Hyperfine spectroscopy of optical-cycling transitions in singly ionized thulium
Patrick Müller, Andrei Tretiakov, Amanda Younes +3
We present a spectroscopic investigation of that provides two key foundations for its use as a platform for advanced quantum applications. First, we establish…

Search for a solar-bound axion halo using the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches
Tatum Z. Wilson, Derek F. Jackson Kimball, Samer Afach +50
We report on a search for a gravitationally bound solar axion halo using data from the Global Network of Optical Magnetometers for Exotic physics searches (GNOME), a worldwide arra…

Internal state cooling of an atom with thermal light
Amanda Younes, Randall Putnam, Paul Hamilton +1
A near-minimal instance of optical cooling is experimentally presented wherein the internal-state entropy of a single atom is reduced more than twofold by illuminating it with broa…
