  "abstract": "We present a dual-region experimental apparatus for trapping single atoms of the fermionic isotope ytterbium-171 (${}^{171}\\mathrm{Yb}$) with optical tweezers in a science chamber containing an in-vacuum nanofiber cavity. A source region is located approximately $240\\,\\mathrm{mm}$ from the science chamber, preserving optical access around the chamber for high-numerical-aperture tweezer optics. A pulsed transport sequence based on longitudinal moving molasses launches atomic pulses toward the science chamber, where they are decelerated and recaptured in a magneto-optical trap. We subsequently load single atoms into a $2\\times2$ tweezer array located approximately $50\\,\\mathrm{μm}$ from the nanofiber and measure a $1/e$ lifetime of $9.5(7)\\,\\mathrm{s}$. These results demonstrate that the dual-region architecture provides sufficient ${}^{171}\\mathrm{Yb}$ atoms for single-atom tweezer operation near an in-vacuum nanofiber cavity.",
