Popis: | We present measurements of interspecies Feshbach resonances and subsequent creation of dual-species Bose-Einstein condensates of $^{23}\mathrm{Na}$ and $^{39}\mathrm{K}$. We prepare both optically trapped ensembles in the spin state $\left|f = 1,m_{f}=-1\right\rangle$ and perform atom loss spectroscopy in a magnetic field range from 0 to $700 \, \mathrm{G}$. The observed features include several s-wave poles and a zero crossing of the interspecies scattering length as well as inelastic two-body contributions in the $\mathcal{M} = m_{\mathrm{Na}}+m_{\mathrm{K}} = -2$ submanifold. We identify and discuss the suitability of different magnetic field regions for the purposes of sympathetic cooling of \K and achieving dual-species degeneracy. Two condensates are created simultaneously by evaporation at a magnetic field of about $150 \, \mathrm{G}$, which provides sizable intra- and interspecies scattering rates needed for fast thermalization. The impact of the differential gravitational sag on the miscibility criterion for the mixture is discussed. Our results serve as a promising starting point for the magnetoassociation into quantum degenerate $^{23}\mathrm{Na}^{39}\mathrm{K}$ Feshbach molecules. Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures |
