Quasipure Bose-Einstein Condensate Immersed in a Fermi Sea

Authors:

Abstract
We report the observation of coexisting Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) and Fermi gas in a magnetic trap. With a very small fraction of thermal atoms, the 7Li condensate is quasipure and in thermal contact with a 6Li Fermi gas. The lowest common temperature is 0.28μK≃0.2(1)TC=0.2(1)TF where TC is the BEC critical temperature and TF the Fermi temperature. The 7Li condensate has a one-dimensional character.
