Atomic gases confined in curved geometries are characterized by distinctive features that
are absent in their flat counterparts, such as periodic boundaries, local curvature and …

We review the status of cooling techniques aimed at achieving the deepest quantum
degeneracy for atomic Fermi gases. We first discuss some physics motivations, providing a …

This paper summarizes the experimental frontier of ultracold fermionic gases. It is based on
three lectures which one of the authors gave at the Varenna Summer School describing the …

We examine single-frequency optical schemes for species-selective trapping of ultracold
alkali-metal atoms. Independently addressing the elements of a binary mixture enables the …

Ultracold quantum gases confined in three-dimensional bubble traps are promising tools for
exploring many-body effects on curved manifolds. As an alternative to the conventional …

We report the realization of a quantum degenerate mixture of bosonic Rb 87 and fermionic
Yb 171 atoms in a hybrid optical dipole trap with a tunable, species-dependent trapping …

We report the production of quantum degenerate Bose-Bose mixtures of Cs and Yb with
both attractive (Cs+ Yb 174) and repulsive (Cs+ Yb 170) interspecies interactions. Dual …

Mixtures of ultracold quantum gases are at the heart of high-precision quantum tests of the
weak equivalence principle, where extremely low expansion rates have to be reached with …

We report on the observation of unusually strong interactions in a thermal mixture of
ultracold atoms which cause a significant modification of the spatial distribution. A mixture of …

We report the all-optical production of a 87Rb Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) in a simple
1.06 μm dipole trap experiment. We load a single beam dipole trap directly from a magneto …
