Here, glancing collisions are those collisions between ultracold atoms and room-temperature background atoms or molecules in the vacuum that do not impart enough kinetic energy to eject an ultracold atom from its trap. Our model is wholly probabilistic and shows that the number of the ultracold atoms remaining in the trap as a function of time is non-exponential. We update the recent results of a comparison between a traditional pressure standard -- a combined flowmeter and dynamic expansion system -- to the CAVS [D.S. Barker, et al., arXiv:2302.12143] to reflect the results of our model. We find that the effect of glancing collisions shifts the theoretical predictions of the total loss rate coefficients for $^7$Li colliding with noble gases or N$_2$ by up to $0.6$ %. Likewise, we find that in the limit of zero trap depth the experimentally extracted loss rate coefficients for $^{87}$Rb colliding with noble gases or N$_2$ shift by as much as 2.2 %. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2409.11226v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2409.11226v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 September, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">10 pages, 2 figures, 3 tables, and 1 supplemental material with 5 tables</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.00256">arXiv:2409.00256</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.00256">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2409.00256">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Applied Physics">physics.app-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Accurate, precise pressure sensing with tethered optomechanics </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Green%2C+O+R">Olivia R.

Our silicon nitride and silicon carbide sensors are short-term and long-term stable, displaying Allan deviations compatible with better than 1 % precision and baseline drift significantly lower than the transfer standard. We also investigate the performance of optomechanical devices as calibrated gauges, finding that they can achieve total uncertainty less than 1 %. The calibration procedure also yields the thin-film density of our sensors with state-of-the-art precision, aiding development of other calibration-free optomechanical sensors. Our results demonstrate that optomechanical pressure sensors can achieve accuracy, precision, and drift sufficient to replace high performance legacy gauges. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2409.00256v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2409.00256v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 30 August, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">15 pages, 7 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.07732">arXiv:2305.07732</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.07732">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2305.07732">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Grating magneto-optical traps with complicated level structures </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Barker%2C+D+S">D.

In contrast to the standard six-beam MOT configuration, rate equation modelling predicts that the asymmetric laser geometry of a grating MOT will produce spin-polarized atomic samples. Furthermore, the Land茅 $g$-factors and total angular momenta of the trapping transition strongly influence both the confinement and equilibrium position of the trap. Using the intuition gained from the rate equation model, we realize a grating MOT of fermionic $^{87}$Sr and observe that it forms closer to the center of the trap's quadrupole magnetic field than its bosonic counterpart. We also explore the application of grating MOTs to molecule laser cooling, where the rate equations suggest that dual-frequency operation is necessary, but not sufficient, for stable confinement for type-II level structures. To test our molecule laser cooling models, we create grating MOTs using the $D_1$ line of $^7$Li and see that only two of the four possible six-beam polarization configurations operate in the grating geometry. Our results will aid the development of portable atom and molecule traps for time keeping, inertial navigation, and precision measurement. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2305.07732v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2305.07732v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 7 September, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 12 May, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2023. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">33 pages, 18 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.04879">arXiv:2305.04879</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.04879">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2305.04879">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.108.033105">10.1103/PhysRevA.108.033105 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Simulations of a frequency-chirped magneto-optical trap of MgF </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Rodriguez%2C+K+J">Kayla J.

While a continuous Brownian description of these noise sources is adequate to model measurements with relatively long integration times, sufficiently precise measurements can resolve the detailed time dependence coming from individual bath-system interactions. We propose the use of nanomechanical devices operated with impulse readout sensitivity around the ``standard quantum limit'' to sense ultra-low gas pressures by directly counting the individual collisions of gas particles on a sensor. We illustrate this in two paradigmatic model systems: an optically levitated nanobead and a tethered membrane system in a phononic bandgap shield. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2303.09922v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2303.09922v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 March, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2023. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">4 pages + short appendix, 3 figs</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.12143">arXiv:2302.12143</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.12143">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2302.12143">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1116/5.0147686">10.1116/5.0147686 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Accurate measurement of the loss rate of cold atoms due to background gas collisions for the quantum-based cold atom vacuum standard </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Barker%2C+D+S">Daniel S.

In our experiments, a combined flowmeter and dynamic expansion system, a vacuum metrology standard, is used to set a known number density for the room-temperature background gas in the vicinity of the magnetically trapped $^7$Li or $^{87}$Rb clouds. Each collision with a background atom or molecule removes a $^7$Li or $^{87}$Rb atom from its trap and the change in the atom loss rate with background gas density is used to determine the thermalized loss rate coefficients with fractional standard uncertainties better than 1.6 % for $^7$Li and 2.7 % for $^{87}$Rb. We find consistency -- a degree of equivalence of less than one -- between the measurements and recent quantum-scattering calculations of the loss rate coefficients [J. Klos and E. Tiesinga, J. Chem. Phys. 158, 014308 (2023)], with the exception of the loss rate coefficient for both $^7$Li and $^{87}$Rb colliding with Ar. Nevertheless, the agreement between theory and experiment for all other studied systems provides validation that a quantum-based measurement of vacuum pressure using cold atoms also serves as a primary standard for vacuum pressure, which we refer to as the cold-atom vacuum standard. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2302.12143v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2302.12143v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 August, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 23 February, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> February 2023. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">12 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables, 2 appendices</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> AVS Quantum Sci. 5 035001 (2023) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.03705">arXiv:2204.03705</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.03705">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2204.03705">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1116/5.0095011">10.1116/5.0095011 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Comparison of two multiplexed portable cold-atom vacuum standards </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Ehinger%2C+L+H">Lucas H.

Our pCAVS devices share the same laser system and measure the vacuum concurrently. The two pCAVS together detected a leak with a rate on the order of $10^{-6}$ Pa L/s. After fixing the leak, the pCAVS measured a pressure of about 40 nPa with 2.6 % uncertainty. The two pCAVS agree within their uncertainties, even when swapping some of their component parts. Operation of the pCAVS was found to cause some additional outgassing, on the order of $10^{-8}$ Pa L/s, which can be mitigated in the future by better thermal management. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2204.03705v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2204.03705v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 7 April, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2022. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">7 pages, 3 figures, 1 table</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> AVS Quantum Sci. 4, 034403 (2022) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.12049">arXiv:2111.12049</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2111.12049">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2111.12049">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.105.032812">10.1103/PhysRevA.105.032812 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Laser Spectroscopy of the y$^7$P$_J^{\circ}$ states of Cr I </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Norrgard%2C+E+B">E.

The measurements provide a much needed precision benchmark for testing the accuracy of the CI+all-order approach for such complicated systems with six valence electrons, allowing to significantly expand its applicability.

We are able to capture 11(2) % of the lithium atoms from a grating magneto-optical trap into $螞$-enhanced $D_1$ gray molasses. The molasses cools the captured atoms to a radial temperature of 60(9) $渭$K and an axial temperature of 23(3) $渭$K. In contrast to results from conventional counterpropagating beam configurations, we do not observe cooling when our optical fields are detuned from Raman resonance. An optical Bloch equation simulation of the cooling dynamics agrees with our data. Our results show that grating magneto-optical traps can serve as a robust source of cold atoms for tweezer-array and atom-chip experiments, even when the atomic species is not amenable to sub-Doppler cooling in bright optical molasses. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2110.03064v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2110.03064v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 6 October, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2021. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">12 pages, 5 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.07979">arXiv:2011.07979</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.07979">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2011.07979">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computational Physics">physics.comp-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> PyLCP: A python package for computing laser cooling physics </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Eckel%2C+S">S.

The program contains three levels of approximation for the motion of the atom, applicable in different regimes offering cross checks for calculations and computational efficiency depending on the physical situation. We test the software by reproducing well-known phenomena, such as damped Rabi flopping, electromagnetically induced transparency, stimulated Raman adiabatic passage, and optical molasses. We also use our software package to quantitatively simulate recoil-limited magneto-optical traps, like those formed on the narrow $^1$S$_0\rightarrow ^3$P$_1$ transition in $^{88}$Sr and $^{87}$Sr. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2011.07979v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2011.07979v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 16 November, 2020; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2020. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">12 pages, 12 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.10560">arXiv:2009.10560</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2009.10560">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Applied Physics">physics.app-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1116/6.0000657">10.1116/6.0000657 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Outgassing rate comparison of seven geometrically similar vacuum chambers of different materials and heat treatments </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Fedchak%2C+J+A">James A.

Chambers of five different materials were tested: 304L, 316L, and 316LN stainless steels; titanium (ASTM grade 2); and 6061 aluminum. In addition, chambers constructed of 316L and 316LN stainless steel were subjected to a vacuum-fire process, where they were heated to approximately 950 掳C for 24 hours while under vacuum; these two chambers are designated as 316L-XHV and 316LN-XHV. All chambers were of identical geometry and made by the same manufacturer, thus a relative comparison of the outgassing rates among these chambers can be made. Water outgassing rates were measured as a function of time using the throughput technique. The water outgassing results for the 316L, 316LN, 316L-XHV, 316LN-XHV were all similar, but lower than those of 304L by a factor of 3 to 5 lower at 10^4 s. The water outgassing results for Ti and Al chambers were close to that of 304L, Ti being slightly lower. Hydrogen outgassing rates were measured using the rate-of-rise method and performed after a low-temperature bake of 125 掳C to 150 掳C for a minimum of 72 hours. The Ti, Al, 316L-XHV, and 316LN-XHV chambers all have specific outgassing rates below 1 X 10^-11 Pa L s^-1 cm^-2 and are at least a factor of 100 or better than the 304L chamber. The 304L, 316L, and 316LN chambers without vacuum-fire heat treatment have larger hydrogen outgassing rates than the other chambers, with specific outgassing rates ranging between 4.0 X 10^-11 Pa L s^-1 cm^-2 and 8.0 X 10^-11 Pa L s^-1 cm^-2. We conclude that Ti, Al, 316L-XHV, and 316LN-XHV have hydrogen outgassing rates that make them excellent choices for ultra-high vacuum (UHV) and extreme-high vacuum (XHV) applications, the choice depending on cost and other material properties. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2009.10560v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2009.10560v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 9 March, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 22 September, 2020; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2020. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">27 pages, 8 figures, 4 tables The following article has been submitted the Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology B.

Our driver provides $>1$ W of output power over a $10$ MHz to $1.1$ GHz frequency range, and $\geq 5$ W from $20$ MHz to $100$ MHz. The driver circuit includes auxiliary components for analog frequency and amplitude modulation ($\approx 70$ kHz bandwidth), as well as digital power switching ($> 30$ dB of extinction within $40$ ns and final extinction $> 90$ dB). The radio-frequency source can also be digitally switched between an external input and an integrated voltage-controlled oscillator. Our design is motivated by the need for flexible, inexpensive drivers of optically active devices, such as acousto-optic and electro-optic modulators. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1908.02156v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1908.02156v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 6 August, 2019; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> August 2019. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">8 pages, 7 figures</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.00064">arXiv:1812.00064</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1812.00064">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1812.00064">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1812.00064">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Nuclear-Spin Dependent Parity Violation in Optically Trapped Polyatomic Molecules </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Norrgard%2C+E+B">Eric B.

An aperture in the grating allows atoms from the dispenser to be loaded from behind the chip, increasing the interaction distance of atoms with the cooling light. To take full advantage of this increased distance, we extend the magnetic field gradient of the MOT to create a Zeeman slower. The MOT traps approximately $10^6$ $^7$Li atoms emitted from an effusive source with loading rates in excess of $10^6$ s$^{-1}$.

The development of primary, vacuum metrology based on cold atoms currently falls under the purview of national metrology institutes. Under the emerging paradigm of the "quantum-SI", these technologies become deployable (relatively easy-to-use sensors that integrate with other vacuum chambers), providing a primary realization of the pascal in the UHV and XHV for the end-user. Here, we discuss the challenges that this goal presents. We investigate, for two different modes of operation, the expected corrections to the ideal cold-atom vacuum gauge and estimate the associated uncertainties. Finally, we discuss the appropriate choice of sensor atom, the light Li atom rather than the heavier Rb. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1809.05378v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1809.05378v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 September, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">21 pages, 5 figures, contribution to the Metrologia focus issue "Focus on Quantum Metrology"</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Metrologia 55 S182 (2018) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.09862">arXiv:1805.09862</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1805.09862">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1805.09862">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.98.043412">10.1103/PhysRevA.98.043412 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Light-induced atomic desorption of lithium </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Barker%2C+D+S">D.

We study the Li desorption rate as a function of the desorption wavelength and power. The extracted wavelength threshold for desorption of Li from fused silica is approximately $470$ nm. In addition to desorption of lithium, we observe light-induced desorption of background gas molecules. The vacuum pressure increase due to the desorbed background molecules is $\lesssim50$ % and the vacuum pressure decreases back to its base value with characteristic timescales on the order of seconds when we extinguish the desorption light. By examining both the loading and decay curves of the magneto-optical trap, we are able to disentangle the trap decay rates due to background gases and desorbed lithium. Our results show that light-induced atomic desorption can be a viable Li vapor source for compact devices and sensors. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1805.09862v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1805.09862v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 23 August, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 24 May, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">6 pages, 3 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.

NIST has ongoing projects that interrogate the index of refraction of a gas using an optical cavity for low vacuum, and count background particles in high vacuum to extreme high vacuum using trapped laser-cooled atoms. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1805.06928v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1805.06928v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 May, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">49 pages, 11 figures, review article</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.10120">arXiv:1801.10120</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1801.10120">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Applied Physics">physics.app-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1088/1681-7575/aa8a7b">10.1088/1681-7575/aa8a7b <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Development of a new UHV/XHV pressure standard (cold atom vacuum standard) </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Scherschligt%2C+J">Julia Scherschligt</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Fedchak%2C+J+A">James A Fedchak</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Barker%2C+D+S">Daniel S Barker</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Eckel%2C+S">Stephen Eckel</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Klimov%2C+N">Nikolai Klimov</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Makrides%2C+C">Constantinos Makrides</a>, <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Tiesinga%2C+E">Eite Tiesinga</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="1801.10120v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> The National Institute of Standards and Technology has recently begun a program to develop a primary pressure standard that is based on ultra-cold atoms, covering a pressure range of 1 x 10-6 to 1 x 10-10 Pa and possibly lower.

These pressures correspond to the entire ultra-high vacuum range and extend into the extreme-high vacuum. This cold-atom vacuum standard (CAVS) is both a primary standard and absolute sensor of vacuum. The CAVS is based on the loss of cold, sensor atoms (such as the alkali-metal lithium) from a magnetic trap due to collisions with the background gas (primarily H2) in the vacuum. The pressure is determined from a thermally-averaged collision cross section, which is a fundamental atomic property, and the measured loss rate. The CAVS is primary because it will use collision cross sections determined from ab initio calculations for the Li + H2 system. Primary traceability is transferred to other systems of interest using sensitivity coefficients. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1801.10120v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1801.10120v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 30 January, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> January 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> 2017 Metrologia 54 S125 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1801.09612">arXiv:1801.09612</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1801.09612">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1801.09612">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Instrumentation and Detectors">physics.ins-det</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Atomic Physics">physics.atom-ph</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5023906">10.1063/1.5023906 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> A 3D-printed alkali metal dispenser </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/physics?searchtype=author&query=Norrgard%2C+E+B">Eric B.

The architecture uses a flyback switching regulator to generate up to 250V in our current design, with an output of 1 kV or more possible with small modifications. A high slew-rate op-amp suppresses the residual switching noise, yielding a total RMS noise of $\approx 100渭$V (1 Hz--100 kHz). A low-voltage ($\pm 10$V), high bandwidth signal can be summed with unity gain directly onto the output, making the driver well-suited for closed-loop feedback applications. Digital control enables both repeatable setpoints and sophisticated control logic, and the circuit consumes less than 150mA at $\pm 15$V. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1609.03607v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1609.03607v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 11 December, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 12 September, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2016. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Rev.

Quantum degenerate samples prepared in the $^{1}S_{0}$ ground state can be rapidly transferred to either the $^{3}P_{2}$ or $^{3}P_{0}$ state via a coherent 3-photon process. Numerical integration of the density matrix evolution for the fine structure of bosonic alkaline-earth atoms shows that transfer efficiencies of $\simeq90\%$ can be achieved with experimentally feasible laser parameters in both Sr and Yb. Importantly, the 3-photon process can be set up such that it imparts no net momentum to the degenerate gas during the excitation, which will allow for studies of metastable samples outside the Lamb-Dicke regime. We discuss several experimental challenges to successfully realizing our scheme, including the minimization of differential AC Stark shifts between the four states connected by the 3-photon transition. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1604.00356v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1604.00356v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 19 April, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 1 April, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2016. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">8 pages, 5 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.

We optimize this trap loading strategy with respect to the 688-nm laser detuning, intensity, and beam size. To understand the results, we develop a one-dimensional rate equation model of the system, which is in good agreement with the data.
