The BEC 4 machine as of August 2015
The machine table, where all the magic happens!
Our main chamber, where we have a magneto-optical trap and magnetic trap.
Our lattice and dipole trapping optics crowding around the science chamber!
Our science chamber, where all the lattice trickery takes place.
Many laser beams are needed to trap the atoms and create an optical lattice!
The team discussing finer details of intensity noise eating.
The laser table. Resonant 780 nm light is barely visible to the naked eye, but largely invisible to a camera!
The laser table again!
Part of our electronics rack.
The drivers seat.
Developing new technology!
Green light for our new lattice!
