Continuous slowing of a gadolinium atomic beam [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
The article presents the development of a new and innovative experimental method to fully characterize a solenoidal "spin-flip" Zeeman slower (ZS) using a Quartz Crystal $\mu$-balance (QCM) as a kinetic energy sensor. In this experiment, we focus a 447.1 nm laser into a counter-propagating beam of gadolinium (Gd) atoms in order to drive the dipole ...
