Many-body interactions in a dissipative frozen strontium Rydberg gas
This thesis describes an investigation of Rydberg excitation within a high-density sample of cold strontium atoms. This sample is prepared using a two-stage magneto-optical trap, cooling first on a broad singlet transition and then a narrow triplet transition. Rydberg atoms are then created using a...
