Abstract:The possibility to mould and control pure quantum systems has been offered by the experimental observation of Bose-Einstein condensation, a unique phase of matter when macroscopic quantities of a gas occupy the lowest quantum state.Techniques for creating these degenerate gases vary from laboratory to laboratory; each offers an unique test bed for studying quantum physics on a macroscopic scale.This thesis reports on the experimental design, construction and performance of an apparatus to create two-component … Show more
