Interspecies thermalization in an ultracold mixture of Cs and Yb in an optical trap
A. Guttridge, S. A. Hopkins, S. L. Kemp +3
We present measurements of interspecies thermalization between ultracold samples of Cs and either Yb or Yb. The two species are trapped in a far-off-resonan…
A versatile dual-species Zeeman slower for caesium and ytterbium
S. A. Hopkins, K. Butler, R. Freytag +5
We describe the design, construction and operation of a versatile dual-species Zeeman slower for both Cs and Yb, which is easily adaptable for use with other alkali metals and alka…
Direct loading of a large Yb MOT on the transition
A Guttridge, S A Hopkins, S L Kemp +6
We report a robust technique for laser frequency stabilisation that enables the reproducible loading of in excess of 10 Yb atoms from a Zeeman slower directly into a magneto-…
Production and characterization of a dual species magneto-optical trap of cesium and ytterbium
S. L. Kemp, K. L. Butler, R. Freytag +4
We describe an apparatus designed to trap and cool a Yb and Cs mixture. The apparatus consists of a dual species effusive oven source, dual species Zeeman slower, magneto-optical t…
An analytical model of Faraday rotation in hot alkali metal vapours
Stefan L Kemp, Ifan G Hughes, Simon L Cornish
We report a thorough investigation into the absorptive and dispersive properties of hot caesium vapour, culminating in the development of a simple analytical model for off-resonant…
Confinement of antihydrogen for 1000 seconds
ALPHA Collaboration, G. B. Andresen, M. D. Ashkezari +36
Atoms made of a particle and an antiparticle are unstable, usually surviving less than a microsecond. Antihydrogen, made entirely of antiparticles, is believed to be stable, and it…
