Abstract

We study steady-state evaporation in an atom guide via Monte Carlo simulations. The evaporation surface follows a specific profile as a function of longitudinal guide location. We demonstrate that the choice of evaporation profile significantly impacts the performance of the evaporation. Our simulations also demonstrate a significant performance boost in the evaporation when using a longitudinally compressed guide. We show that for a purely pressure-driven atom beam, it should be possible to reach degeneracy within a $0.5~\m$ guide for experimentally feasible, albeit challenging, loading conditions.
