Abstract (excerpt)
Ultra-cold atom-ion mixtures are gaining increasing interest due to their potential applications in quantum chemistry, quantum computing and many-body physics. Here, we studied the dynamics of a single ground-state cooled ion during few, to many, Langevin (spiraling) collisions with ultra-cold atoms. We measured the ion's energy distribution and observed a clear deviation from Maxwell-Boltzmann to a Tsallis characterized by a power-law tail of high energies. Unlike previous experiments, the energy scale of atom-ion interactions is not determined by either the atomic cloud temperature or the io
