Abstract

The last five years has seen an explosive growth in activity in the field of quantum degenerate gases, and there are now many realizations of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of trapped atomic gasses. However, only one experiment has produced a quantum degenerate Fermi gas.1 The ultimate goal of the experiment discussed here is to achieve a BCS phase transition in a trapped gas of fermionic 6Li atoms. This requires a phase-space density that is much higher than that needed for BEC, as the temperature must be made much less than the Fermi temperature.
