cavity cooling — •Malik Lindholdt, Julian Klinner, Matthias Wolke, and Andreas Hemmerich — Institut für Laserphysik,Universität Hamburg, Luruper Chaussee 149, 22761 Hamburg

We presently prepare a new experimental apparatus, which permits to trap a Bose-Einstein Condensate of rubidium atoms inside an optical cavity with 400.000 finesse and a large mode volume. The cavity will display a ratio between the scattering rate into the cavity mode and into all other modes well above 10 and a narrow bandwidth of a few kHz. We plan to explore cavity induced cooling mechanisms in the transition regime between thermal and quantum degenerate atomic dynamics. The poster will present the status of our experiments.
