Thermalization of magnetically trapped metastable helium

Physical Review A, 64, 034703 We have observed thermalization by elastic collisions of magnetically trapped metastable helium atoms. Our method directly samples the reconstruction of a thermal energy distribution after the application of an RF knife. The relaxation time of our sample towards equilib...
