Two-species mixture of quantum degenerate Bose and Fermi gases

We have produced a macroscopic quantum system in which a 6Li Fermi sea coexists with a large and stable 23Na Bose-Einstein condensate. This was accomplished using interspecies sympathetic cooling of fermionic 6Li in a thermal bath of bosonic 23Na. The system features rapid thermalization and long li...

Zusammenfassung:We have produced a macroscopic quantum system in which a 6Li Fermi sea coexists with a large and stable 23Na Bose-Einstein condensate. This was accomplished using interspecies sympathetic cooling of fermionic 6Li in a thermal bath of bosonic 23Na. The system features rapid thermalization and long lifetimes.
