Abstract

We report on a calculation of the spin-exchange two-body rate constants associated with the population dynamics of the hyperfine levels of atomic deuterium as a function of magnetic field in the Boltzmann zero temperature limit. We find that a gas of low field seeking deuterium atoms trapped in a static magnetic field minimum decays rapidly into an ultra stable gas of doubly spin-polarized deuterium.
