State-dependent interactions in ultracold $^{174}$Yb probed by optical clock spectroscopy (1707.04269v1)
Published 13 Jul 2017 in cond-mat.quant-gas, physics.atom-ph, and quant-ph
Abstract: We report on the measurement of the scattering properties of ultracold ${174}$Yb bosons in a three-dimensional (3D) optical lattice. Site occupancy in an atomic Mott insulator is resolved with high-precision spectroscopy on an ultranarrow optical clock transition. Scattering lengths and loss rate coefficients for ${174}$Yb atoms in different collisional channels involving the ground state $1$S$_0$ and the metastable $3$P$_0$ are derived. These studies set important constraints for future experimental studies of two-electron atoms for quantum-technological applications.
