Abstract
Atomic manganese 55Mn and chromium 52Cr are simultaneously loaded and confined in a magnetic trap.
Using a cryogenic 3 He buffer gas, 1011 manganese and 1012 chromium atoms are trapped at an initial temperature of 600 mK. The buffer gas is then pumped away, thermally isolating the sample. The Mn-Cr interspecies inelastic rate constant is measured to be GMn,Cr=1.5s±0.2d310−13 cm3 /s.
