Photoassociation and Feshbach resonance studies in ultra-cold gases of ⁶Li and Rb atoms

This thesis presents an experimental apparatus capable of producing and studying ultra-cold mixtures of ⁶Li and Rb, and progress towards the creation of ultra-cold ground state ⁶Li₂ and LiRb molecules. Ultra-cold experiments with molecules have applications in many quantum computation and simulation...
