Collisions between laser-cooled molecules and atoms — •Michael Tarbutt — Centre for Cold Matter, Blackett Laboratory, Imperial College London, London SW7 2AZ, UK

Ultracold molecules can be used to test fundamental physics, simulate many-body quantum systems, process quantum information, and study ultracold chemistry. We capture CaF molecules in a magneto-optical trap (MOT) [1, 2], cool them to a few microkelvin [3], trap them magnetically [4], and coherently control their rotational state [5, 6]. To increase the phase-space density, we aim to sympathetically cool the molecules using ultracold atoms. For this purpose, we have developed a dual-species MOT for CaF and Rb. I will present our first studies of collisions between these two species in the MOT and in a magnetic trap.
