Collisional stability of localized Yb(${}^3{\mathrm{P}}_2$) atoms immersed in a Fermi sea of Li

Hideki Konishi, Florian Schäfer, Shinya Ueda +1

We establish an experimental method for a detailed investigation of inelastic collisional properties between ytterbium (Yb) in the metastable ${}^3{\mathrm{P}}_2$ state and ground st…
