Description

Creating quantum mixtures can be a challenging, yet highly awarding goal. While many quantum mixture experiments rely on atoms of different spin states or isotopes, the approach of this experiment relies on two atoms as far apart as currently reachable. While lithium-6 is a fermionic and light atom, erbium-166 is a bosonic and heavy counterpart. This strongly mass imbalanced mixture possesses a low scattering tuneout wavelength, enabling individual control of lithium within erbium.
By that means, we want to study the thermalisation of an impurity within a bosonic background, namely a bose polaron.
