We measure the density profiles for a Fermi gas of $^6$Li containing $N_1$ spin-up atoms and $N_2$ spin-down atoms, confined in a quasi-two-dimensional geometry. The spatial profiles are measured as a function of spin-imbalance $N_2/N_1$…
An important tool for understanding the effects of interactions in harmonically trapped atomic gases is the examination of their collective modes. One such mode is the breathing or monopole mode, which is special as it is constrained to…
