The early experiments on Bose–Einstein condensation in dilute atomic gases accomplished
three long-standing goals. First, cooling of neutral atoms into their motional ground state …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses optical dipole traps for neutral atoms. Methods
for storage and trap** of charged and neutral particles have very often served as the …

The realization of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEe) in dilute atomic gases [1-5] achieved
several long-standing goals. First, neutral atoms were cooled into the lowest energy state …

We report the formation of a dual-species Bose-Einstein condensate of Rb 87 and Cs 133 in
the same trap** potential. Our method exploits the efficient sympathetic cooling of Cs 133 …

We report the realization of a Bose-Einstein condensate of metastable atoms (helium in the
lowest triplet state). The excitation energy of each atom with respect to the ground state is 20 …

We have observed a Bose-Einstein condensate in a dilute gas of 4 He in the 2 S 1 3
metastable state. We find a critical temperature of (4.7±0.5) μ K and a typical number of …

The field of few-body physics has originally been motivated by understanding nuclear
matter, but in the past few years ultracold gases with tunable interactions have emerged as …

We report on the production of Cr 52 Bose-Einstein condensates with an all-optical method.
We first load 5× 10 6 metastable chromium atoms in a one-dimensional (1D) far-off …

Collision physics plays a key role in understanding the properties of ultracold gases. First,
collisions ensure thermalization in trapped atomic samples, which is essential for the …
