Compact, Robust Source of Cold Atoms for Efficient Loading of a Magnetic Guide
R. S. Conroy, Y. Xiao, M. Vengalattore +2
We report a compact (<20cm3), robust source for producing a bright flux of cold atoms, which can be loaded efficiently into a magnetic guide. A continuous flux of up to 8 x 109 87R…
Observation of Caustics in the Trajectories of Cold Atoms in a Linear Magnetic Potential
Wilbert Rooijakkers, Saijun Wu, Pierre Striehl +2
We have studied the spatial and temporal dynamics of a cold atom cloud in the conservative force field of a ferromagnetic guide, after laser cooling has been switched off suddenly.…
Novel Ferromagnetic Atom Waveguide with in situ loading
M. Vengalattore, W. Rooijakkers, M. Prentiss
Magneto-optic and magnetostatic trapping is realized near a surface using current carrying coils wrapped around magnetizable cores. A cloud of 10^7 Cesium atoms is created with cur…
