This project focuses on investigations of cooled and trapped atomic vapors composed of multiple atomic species. The work will begin with laser cooled and trapped atomic mixtures prepared in a novel multi-species magneto-optical trap. Four areas are emphasized: 1) photoassociation to create a source of ultracold heteronuclear molecules; 2) an investigation of different trap designs for trapping ultracold heteronuclear molecules; 3) a measurement of atom-atom, atom-molecule, and molecule-molecule scattering parameters; and 4) an investigation of the properties of Bose-Einstein condensates of complex systems. The experiments will be accompanied by theoretical investigations.

这个项目的重点是研究由多种原子组成的冷却和捕获原子蒸气。这项工作将从激光冷却和捕获原子混合物开始，这些混合物是在一种新型的多物种磁光陷阱中制备的。重点讨论了四个方面：1)光缔合形成超冷异核分子的源；2)不同陷阱设计的研究；3)原子-原子、原子-分子和分子-分子散射参数的测量；4)复杂体系玻色-爱因斯坦凝聚体性质的研究。实验将伴随着理论研究。
