Effective magnetic flux in a 2D lattice. Our system realizes uniform effective fields of arbitrary strength and serves as the starting point for exploring many-body physics in the quantum Hall regime.
Entropy distribution during spin gradient demagnetization cooling as in Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 195301 (2011). Final temperatures are (a) T = 3.0 nK, (b) T = 1.5 nK, and (c) T = 0.5 nK. The technique pioneered in our lab was able to cool the atoms in our lattice to an astonishing 350 +/- 50 picokelvin!
