A cryofuge for cold-collision experiments with slow polar molecules

Xing Wu, Thomas Gantner, Manuel Koller +3

Ultracold molecules represent a fascinating research frontier in physics and chemistry, but it has proven challenging to prepare dense samples at low velocities. Here we present a…

Theory of excitation of Rydberg polarons in an atomic quantum gas

R. Schmidt, J. D. Whalen, R. Ding +8

We present a quantum many-body description of the excitation spectrum of Rydberg polarons in a Bose gas. The many-body Hamiltonian is solved with functional determinant theory, and…

Controlling electron-electron correlation in frustrated double ionization of molecules with orthogonally polarized two-color laser fields

A. Chen, M. F. Kling, A. Emmanouilidou

We demonstrate the control of electron-electron correlation in frustrated double ionization (FDI) of the two-electron triatomic molecule D when driven by two orthogonally…

Transmission of near-resonant light through a dense slab of cold atoms

Laura Corman, Jean-Loup Ville, Raphaël Saint-Jalm +5

The optical properties of randomly positioned, resonant scatterers is a fundamentally difficult problem to address across a wide range of densities and geometries. We investigate i…

The proton radius puzzle

J. J. Krauth, K. Schuhmann, M. Abdou Ahmed +49

High-precision measurements of the proton radius from laser spectroscopy of muonic hydrogen demonstrated up to six standard deviations smaller values than obtained from electron-pr…

Coherent many-body spin dynamics in a long-range interacting Ising chain

Johannes Zeiher, Jae-yoon Choi, Antonio Rubio-Abadal +4

Coherent many-body quantum dynamics lies at the heart of quantum simulation and quantum computation. Both require coherent evolution in the exponentially large Hilbert space of an…
