We show, both experimentally and theoretically, that sympathetic cooling of Rb-87 atoms in the \F = 2,m(F) = 2 > state by evaporatively cooled atoms in the \F = 1,m(F) = -1 > state can be precisely controlled so as to produce a condensate in either or both states. We also study the thermalization rate between two species. Our model renders a quantitative account of the observed role of the overlap between the two clouds and verifies that sympathetic cooling becomes inefficient when the masses are very different. Our calculation also yields an analytical expression of the thermalization rate for a single species.
