Triplet Rydberg state spectroscopy of ultracold strontium atoms

Ingo Nosske
University of Science and Technology of China

In this talk I will describe the experimental apparatus for the production of ultracold (~1 µK) strontium atoms which was built in Shanghai in the last 3 years. In particular I will present our laser cooling scheme, which consists of a side-loaded two-dimensional magneto-optical trap (2D-MOT), a broadband and a narrowband 3D-MOT. Also the Rydberg excitation laser system will be presented. In the end, recent progress in triplet Rydberg state spectroscopy will be shown.
