Observation of the Einstein-de Haas Effect in a Bose-Einstein condensate
Hiroki Matsui, Yuki Miyazawa, Ryoto Goto +4
The Einstein-de Haas effect is a phenomenon in which angular momentum is transferred from microscopic spins to mechanical rotation of a rigid body. Here, we report the first observ…
Bose-Einstein Condensation of Europium
Yuki Miyazawa, Ryotaro Inoue, Hiroki Matsui +2
We report the realization of a Bose-Einstein condensate of europium atoms, which is a strongly dipolar species with unique properties, a highly symmetric $[\mathrm{Xe}]\ 4f^7 6s^2\…
Narrow-line magneto-optical trap for europium
Yuki Miyazawa, Ryotaro Inoue, Hiroki Matsui +2
We report on the realization of a magneto-optical trap (MOT) for europium atoms using a narrow-line cooling transition with a natural linewidth of 97 kHz. Our starting point is con…
Magneto-optical trapping of optically pumped metastable europium
Ryotaro Inoue, Yuki Miyazawa, Mikio Kozuma
We demonstrate laser cooling and magneto-optical trapping of europium. The atoms are optically pumped to a metastable state and then loaded from an atomic-beam source via conventio…
Site-resolved imaging of a bosonic Mott insulator using ytterbium atoms
Martin Miranda, Ryotaro Inoue, Naoki Tambo +1
We demonstrate site-resolved imaging of a strongly correlated quantum system without relying on laser-cooling techniques during fluorescence imaging. We observed the formation of M…
Measuring the branching ratios from the state to metastable states in europium
Yuki Miyazawa, Ryotaro Inoue, Keiji Nishida +2
We measure the branching ratios from the excited state to six metastable states of europium through fluorescence spectroscopy of an atomic beam. The sum of the s…
