Spin gradient demagnetization cooling of ultracold atoms

We have demonstrated a new cooling method in which a time-varying magnetic field gradient is applied to an ultracold spin mixture [1].  We prepare a two-component cloud of rubidium atoms, either in the superfluid or Mott insulator phase, in a strong field gradient separating the two components with a narrow mixed region between the pure-spin...
