Interorbital interactions in an SU(2)⊗SU(6)-symmetric Fermi-Fermi mixture — •Koen Sponselee1, Benjamin Abeln1, Marcel Diem1, Nejira Pintul1, Klaus Sengstock1,2, and Christoph Becker1,2 — 1Center for Optical Quantum Technologies, University of Hamburg, Luruper Chaussee 149, 22761 Hamburg, Germany — 2Institute for Laser Physics, University of Hamburg, Luruper Chaussee 149, 22761 Hamburg, Germany
We characterise the s-wave interactions in interorbital 171Yb-173Yb Fermi-Fermi mixtures [1], where either 171Yb is excited to the 3P0 state while leaving 173Yb in the ground state, or vice versa.
Using high-resolution clock spectroscopy, we measure the elastic scattering lengths and directly show the SU(2)⊗SU(6) symmetry of both interisotope interactions, which turn out to be attractive and similar. We further measure losses in these interorbital Fermi-Fermi mixtures and observe a difference of about two orders of magnitude between both interisotope interactions.
Along with other known 1S0-3P0 state interactions of ytterbium, these measurements can be used as a benchmark for future ground-excited state Yb2 molecular potential models.
