Trapping and evaporation of strontium-87 and strontium-88 mixtures
This thesis describes trapping and evaporative cooling of ultracold 87Sr and 88Sr mixtures in an optical dipole trap to produce the first Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of 88Sr. Furthermore, this work presents thermalization studies that characterize the scattering properties of these ultracold str...
