Quantum degenerate mixtures of Cs and Yb

Year: 2021

Type: article

Abstract: The authors experimentally demonstrate the production of quantum degenerate Bose-Bose mixtures of cesium and ytterbium with attractive and repulsive interactions through sympathetic cooling. This development adds another system to the ultracold-atom toolbox, enabling future studies of quantum droplets and binary fluid dynamics.
