Dynamics of a tunable superfluid junction
L. J. LeBlanc, A. B. Bardon, J. McKeever +5
We study the population dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate in a double-well potential throughout the crossover from Josephson dynamics to hydrodynamics. At barriers higher than…
Fermions on atom chips
Marcius H. T. Extavour, Lindsay J. LeBlanc, Jason McKeever +5
We review our recent and ongoing work with Fermi gases on an atom chip. After reviewing some statistical and thermodynamic properties of the ideal, non-interacting Fermi gas, and a…
Dual-species quantum degeneracy of potassium-40 and rubidium-87 on an atom chip
M. H. T. Extavour, L. J. LeBlanc, T. Schumm +5
In this article we review our recent experiments with a 40K-87Rb mixture. We demonstrate rapid sympathetic cooling of a 40K-87Rb mixture to dual quantum degeneracy on an atom chip.…
Rapid sympathetic cooling to Fermi degeneracy on a chip
S. Aubin, S. Myrskog, M. H. T. Extavour +4
Neutral fermions present new opportunities for testing many-body condensed matter systems, realizing precision atom interferometry, producing ultra-cold molecules, and investigatin…
Trapping Fermionic K and Bosonic Rb on a Chip
S. Aubin, M. H. T. Extavour, S. Myrskog +9
We demonstrate the loading of a Bose-Fermi mixture into a microfabricated magnetic trap. In a single-chamber vacuum system, laser-cooled atoms are transported to the surface of a s…
