A versatile ring trap for quantum gases
2021
We report on the confinement of a Bose-Einstein condensate in an annular trap with widely tunable parameters. The trap relies on a combination of magnetic, optical and radio-frequency fields. The loading procedure is discussed. We present annular traps with radii adjusted between 20 and 150 micrometers. We demonstrate the preparation of persistent flows both with a rotating laser stirrer and with a global quadrupole deformation of the ring.Our setup is well adapted for the study of superfluid dynamics.
