15 Jun 2006 | | Subject: | Other | | Abstract: | We demonstrate a new method to make mixtures of ultracold atoms which avoids the two-species magneto-optical trap. We prepare two clouds of $^{87}$Rb atoms in distinct magnetic quadrupole traps and mix the two clouds by merging the traps. For correctly chosen parameters the mixing can be done essentially without loss of atoms and with only minor heating. The basic features of the process can be accounted for by a classical simulation of particle trajectories. Such calculations indicate that mixing of different mass species is also feasible, opening the way for using the method as a starting point for making quantum gas mixtures. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0606416 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
