<description descriptionType="Abstract"><p>This is a stand-alone version of chapter 2 of Mathis Fischer&rsquo;s PhD thesis [1]. It aims to provide<br>
an overview of the physical properties of the bosonic Lithium isotope <sup>7</sup>Li, that are useful and<br>
relevant for quantum gas experiments. While there are great resources on the relevant physical<br>
properties of Rubidium, Cesium, Sodium, Potassium, and the fermionic isotope <sup>6</sup>Li by Daniel<br>
Steck, Tobias Tiecke, and Michael Gehm [2&ndash;7], there is - to the best of our knowledge -<br>
no comparable manuscript discussing the properties of <sup>7</sup>Li. A review article by Randall G. Hulet,<br>
Jason H. V. Nguyen, and Ruwan Senaratne [8] discusses methods for the preparation of cold<br>
gases of both Lithium isotopes. Here we summarize these results together with other resources<br>
to provide the relevant data solely for <sup>7</sup>Li in a similar format as from Michael Gehm for <sup>6</sup>Li.<br>
We focus on the important properties that need to be considered for successful Bose-Einstein<br>
condensation of <sup>7</sup>Li.</p>
