First Dipolar Quantum Mixtures!
Now on Physical Review Letter !
We have created for the first time a dipolar quantum mixture by combining two highly magnetic atomic species, Erbium and Dysprosium. The experiment has been conducted in the RARE Lab and we observe simultaneous quantum degeneracy of 5 Bose-Bose mixture and a Bose-Fermi one.
Sandra joins RARE-lab
After doing a summer internship in our group, Sandra Brandstetter has joined the RARE team for her master thesis.
Her work will focus on two-dimensional dipolar systems.
Simon is now Doctor of Philosophy
On Monday, Simon held his defense for his PhD thesis and is now officially a Doctor of Philosophy.
He will carry out his research as a post-doctoral fellow in the group of Ronald Hanson at Qutech in Delft.
Congratulations and good luck!
First strongly interacting dipolar Fermi gas!
Now in Physical Review Letter!
In our Erbium experiment, we have created the first two component dipolar Fermi gas with tunable interactions. This paves the way to studies of BEC-BCS physics in presence of an unprecedented few-body scattering scenario, including anisotropic long-range dipolar interactions and anisotropic short-range interactions.
