摘要：

The focus of this paper is based on the current experimental setup of a magneto-optical trap by the Quantum Research Group at University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN). In particular, presented are the details of the ultra-high vacuum system, optical system, and magnetic field generation that are implemented in the cold atom experiment. In addition to this, a fluorescence imaging system is described which can be used to determine the characteristics of the atom cloud.
