- To develop new techniques
for creating and studying ultracold hydrogen and deuterium,
employing buffer gas loading with a second species
to accelerate cooling
- To implement these techniques
in a new-generation apparatus for studying ultracold
hydrogen and deuterium.

- Buffer gas loading of hydrogen and lithium
- Accelerated cooling of hydrogen by collisions with
lithium
- Possibility for trapping deuterium
- Laser ablation source hydrogen, deuterium and lithium
- Initial cooling in sepherical quadrupole trap
- Final cooling in linear quadrupole trap (Ioffe-Pritchard
trap)
- New cryogenic apparatus to optimize buffer-gas loading
- Method avoids need for liquid helium films

- Ultraprecise spectroscopy of hydrogen and deuterium
- Study of H-H, H-D and H-D interactions in ground
and excited states
- Study of quantum degenerate hydrogen and deuterium
