Group Seminar via Zoom: Ultracold atoms experiment in Warsaw

Group Seminar via video conference (Zoom)

Dealing with the unique situation of partial lock downs worldwide and home office solutions at our Institute due to the current spreading of the Covid 19 virus, we are now holding our group seminars and journal clubs via video conference.
This procedure enables us to continue our research, enhance discussions and exchange important information.

Abstract:

In the summer of 2019, the Quantum Gases Laboratory at the University of Warsaw joined the scientific effort of ultracold matter research with the first successful run of its apparatus for laser cooling. The built setup is capable of preparing sub-Doppler cooled samples of cesium and all three potassium isotopes, which makes it a versatile platform for the investigation of heteronuclear mixtures. The prepared system is of a single chamber design with atoms loaded from the background gas released from dispensers. In its current state, the system is ready to perform measurements and further cooling steps that involve dipole or magnetic traps. This talk will present solutions used in the constructed experiment alongside smaller projects that are meant to aid further research. Moreover, recent developments and a brief overview of ongoing studies will be discussed.
