Continuous stopping and trapping of neutral atoms
- 1. Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139 (USA)
Description
We are now able to hold billions of laser cooled sodium atoms for minutes in a magnetic neutral trap. Physics experiments that might be done in this type of trap are outlined. The trap itself is described and results which characterize the loading and trapping of the atoms are presented. Finally, we report very recent work in which R. F. transitions between magnetic hyperfine levels have been driven
