Local photoionization of ultracold atoms shall offer insight into the coherence properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). To access the corresponding quantum effects, we are setting up an experiment which allows resolving correlations among electrons photoionized from a BEC by a femtosecond laser pulse.

Here we report on our progress in setting up a quantum gas machine where the ultracold gases are optically transported into the focus region of the femtosecond laser beam. As photoionization induces local losses in the BEC, a theoretical model of the dissipative system is essential including a quantification of the quantum Zeno effect.
