Ultracold atoms are a particularly clean system for probing polaronic states of interacting particles. Fermi polarons in particular have been studied with several realizations, all of which were using alkali atoms. Here, we report on the observation of attractive and repulsive Fermi polarons across the orbital Feshbach resonance (OFR) in a two dimensional gas of 173Yb. This novel type of Feshbach resonance allows tuning the s-wave scattering length of atoms in the 1S0 ground state and the metastable 3P0 state. In our experiment, we prepare a spin-imbalanced Fermi gas for various interaction parameters ln(kF a2D) in the vicinity of the OFR. We spectroscopically identify two distinct energy branches corresponding to attractive and repulsive Fermi polarons. In addition, we probe the quasiparticle properties, namely the quasiparticle residue and the lifetime of the repulsive polaron. We find good agreement between the experimental results and the predictions from our many-body theory.
