Abstract
Two different isotopes-Rb-85 and Rb-87-have been captured simultaneous ly in one magneto-optical trap. The trap parameters could be chosen ne arly independently for the two isotopes. The trap loss rates that are due to collisions between atoms of different isotopes have been measur ed in the low-intensity limit.
