Our new paper on optimizing cryogenic buffer gas sources is up on the arXiv!
Through a combination of experimental and simulation work, we shed light onto to the dynamics of buffer gas beam sources and the properties which impact the number of molecules which can be trapped into a MOT.

Our first paper is out on the arXiv!
We have achieved the largest molecular magneto-optical trap to date and conducted simulations to provide physical intuition into the mechanisms that affect MOT loading.
