- Abstract: We propose and experimentally demonstrate a method for laser cooling an oscillator based on sequences of spin-state-dependent displacements followed by spin repumping. For a thermal state with mean occupation $\bar{n}\gg 1$ the method attains a reduction to 0.632 of the initial thermal oscillator occupation for two repumps of the two-level spin state. This is within a factor of 2.53 of the optimum that might be expected due to the reduction of the oscillator entropy by $2 \ln(2)$. We show that the method, which is based on encoding the value of the modular-variable of the oscillator into the spin, has a simple semi-classical description in terms of a Bayesian update. We demonstrate the method experimentally using the internal and motional states of a single trapped ion.

We find a renormalized classical spin liquid with constant entropy density $S/N$ approaching $ln(2)/6$ in the thermodynamic limit.

The method is based on the ponderomotive interaction of the Rydberg electron, which has less-restrictive selection rules than electric-dipole couplings.
The method paves the way for optical Doppler-free high-precision spectroscopy of Rydberg-Rydberg transitions and for spatially-selective qubit manipulation.
