| dc.description.abstract | We report quantum degeneracy in a gas of ultracold fermionic Sr87 atoms. By evaporatively cooling a mixture of spin states in an optical dipole trap for 10.5 s, we obtain samples well into the degenerate regime with T/TF=0.26+0.05−0.06. The main signature of degeneracy is a change in the momentum distribution as measured by time-of-flight imaging, and we also observe a decrease in evaporation efficiency below T/TF∼0.5. | en_US |
