Abstract
104 magnesium atoms have been trapped in an optical lattice at the predicted magic wavelength of 469 nm. The trap depth of the lattice sites is 16 Er corresponding to a Lamb-Dicke parameter of η = 0.51. The temperature of atoms in the lattice is 10 μK. We performed magnetic field-induced spectroscopy on the strongly spin-forbidden clock transition and observed for the first time a 50 kHz broad carrier signal together with a 80 kHz broad red sideband.
