Abstract
We report on the design and construction of a spin-flip Zeeman slower, quadrupole magnetic trap, and Feshbach fields for a new machine for ultra-cold Li-7. The small mass of the Li-7 atom, and the tight lattice spacing, will enable us to achieve a 100-fold increase in tuneling rates over comparable Rb-87 optical lattice emulator experiments. These improvements should enable to access new regimes in quantum magnetic phase transitions and spin dynamics.
