Photoassociation of spin polarized Chromium

Jahn Rührig, Tobias Bäuerle, Paul S. Julienne +2

We report the homonuclear photoassociation (PA) of ultracold atoms in an optical dipole trap. This constitutes the first measurement of PA in an element with t…

Sisyphus cooling in a continuously loaded trap

Valentin V. Volchkov, Jahn Rührig, Tilman Pfau +1

We demonstrate continuous Sisyphus cooling combined with a continuous loading mechanism used to efficiently slow down and accumulate atoms from a guided beam. While the loading its…

Efficient demagnetization cooling of atoms and its limits

Valentin V. Volchkov, Jahn Rührig, Tilman Pfau +1

Demagnetization cooling relies on spin-orbit coupling that brings motional and spin degrees of freedom into thermal equilibrium. In the case of a gas, one has the advantage that th…

Evaporation limited loading of an atom trap

Markus Falkenau, Valentin V. Volchkov, Jahn Rührig +2

Recently, we have experimentally demonstrated a continuous loading mechanism for an optical dipole trap from a guided atomic beam [1]. The observed evolution of the number of atoms…

Continuous Loading of a Conservative Trap from an Atomic Beam

Markus Falkenau, Valentin V. Volchkov, Jahn Rührig +2

We demonstrate the fast accumulation of Cr atoms in a conservative potential from a magnetically guided atomic beam. Without laser cooling on a cycling transition, a single dissipa…
