Stopping supersonic oxygen with a series of pulsed electromagnetic coils: A molecular coilgun
arXiv:0804.0219 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.100.093003
Abstract
We report the stopping of a molecular oxygen beam, using a series of pulsed electromagnetic coils. A series of coils is fired in a timed sequence to bring the molecules to near-rest, where they are detected with a quadrupole mass spectrometer. Applications to cold chemistry are discussed.
