Bose-Einstein condensation in an electro-pneumatically transformed quadrupole-Ioffe magnetic trap
We report a novel approach for preparing a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) of ^87 Rb atoms using an electro-pneumatically driven transfer of atoms into a quadrupole-Ioffe magnetic trap (QUIC trap). More than 5 × ${{10}^{8}}$ atoms from a magneto-optical trap are loaded into a spherical quadrupole tra...
