Nonadiabatic Effects in Ultracold Molecules via Anomalous Linear and Quadratic Zeeman Shifts
arXiv:1307.4774 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.111.243003
Abstract
Anomalously large linear and quadratic Zeeman shifts are measured for weakly bound ultracold Sr molecules near the intercombination-line asymptote. Nonadiabatic Coriolis coupling and the nature of long-range molecular potentials explain how this effect arises and scales roughly cubically with the size of the molecule. The linear shifts yield nonadiabatic mixing angles of the molecular states. The quadratic shifts are sensitive to nearby opposite -parity states and exhibit fourth-order corrections, providing a stringent test of a state-of-the-art \textit{ab initio} model.
