We describe an experiment to produce 87 Rb Bose-Einstein condensates in an optically
plugged magnetic quadrupole trap, using a blue-detuned laser. Due to the large detuning of …

We present a dynamic ion–atom hybrid trap for studies of cold ion‐neutral collisions and
reactions with a significantly improved energy resolution compared with previous …

We observe the spontaneous evaporation of atoms confined in a bubble-like radio
frequency (rf)-dressed trap (Zobay and Garraway 2001 Phys. Rev. Lett. 86 1195; 2004 Phys …

A beam source is proposed for the production of an intense cold cesium atomic beam that
can be used in cesium beam atomic clocks. The source is based on a two-dimensional …

We have demonstrated the experimental realization of a single-beam mini magneto-optical
trap of 87Rb atoms, originally designed for a cold atom-clock with coherent population …

We report our studies on an intense source of cold cesium atoms based on a two-
dimensional (2D) magneto–optical trap (MOT) with independent axial cooling and pushing …

Single-impulse three-dimensional magnetic focusing of vertically launched cold atoms has
been observed. Four different configurations of the lens were used to vary the relative radial …

We report the results of in-situ characterization of 87 Rb atom cloud in a quadrupole Ioffe
configuration (QUIC) magnetic trap after a radio-frequency (RF) evaporative cooling of the …

Loading a dipole trap from an atomic reservoir is considered to be an efficient method for the
preparation of trapped atoms at high density, which has led to notable results for the case of …

We report the observation of significant enhancement in the transfer of laser-cooled R 87 b
atoms between two vertically separated magneto-optical traps (MOTs) when an …
