Evaporative Cooling of Trapped Atoms

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on the concept of evaporative cooling of trapped neutral atoms and showed that phase-space density could be increased by six orders of magnitude in these experiments.

The semiclassical theory of laser cooling

TL;DR: In this paper, the basic theory of the mechanical action of light in resonant interaction with atoms is reviewed. But the main application is laser cooling, but the approach is applicable to a broader range of phenomena.

Radiation-Pressure Cooling of Bound Resonant Absorbers

TL;DR: In this article, the first observation of radiation-pressure cooling on a system of resonant absorbers which are elastically bound to a laboratory fixed apparatus was reported, and they were cooled to 40 K by irradiating them with the 8-ensuremath{\mu}W output of a frequency doubled, single-mode dye laser tuned to the low-frequency side of the Doppler profile on the $S 2S 1/2

Trapping of Atoms by Resonance Radiation Pressure

TL;DR: In this paper, a method of stably trapping, cooling, and manipulating atoms on a continuous-wave basis using resonance radiation pressure forces is proposed using highly focused laser beams and atomic beam injection should give a very deep trap for confining single atoms or gases at temperatures

"Optical-sideband Cooling of Visible Atom Cloud Confined in Parabolic Well"

TL;DR: In this article, an assemblage of 50 ions, contained in a parabolic well, has been visually observed and cooled by means of near-resonant laser irradiation, and the results show that the irradiation can be very effective.
