ABSTRACT:
A Zeeman-slower device, a coil for such a Zeeman-slower device, and a method for cooling an atom beam. The Zeeman-slower includes a cooling section including an inner passage extending along a longitudinal axis, the inner passage having a cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, wherein the area of the cross-section of the inner passage increases monotonously along the longitudinal axis at least in a part of the cooling section.
