Quantum-State Controlled Chemical Reactions of Ultracold KRb Molecules
S. Ospelkaus, K. -K. Ni, D. Wang +7
How does a chemical reaction proceed at ultralow temperatures? Can simple quantum mechanical rules such as quantum statistics, single scattering partial waves, and quantum threshol…
Controlling the hyperfine state of rovibronic ground-state polar molecules
S. Ospelkaus, K. -K. Ni, G. Quemener +6
Ultracold molecules offer entirely new possibilities for the control of quantum processes due to their rich internal structure. Recently, near quantum degenerate gases of molecules…
Electron EDM searches based on alkali or alkaline earth bearing molecules
Edmund R. Meyer, John L. Bohn
We introduce four new molecules -- YbRb, YbCs, YbSr, and YbBa -- that may prove fruitful in experimental searches for the electric dipole moment (EDM) of the electron. Thes…
Quasi-Universal Dipolar Scattering in Cold and Ultracold Gases
J. L. Bohn, M. Cavagnero, C. Ticknor
We investigate the scattering cross section of aligned dipolar molecules in low-temperature gases. Over a wide range of collision energies relevant to contemporary experiments, the…
Electric dipoles at ultralow temperatures
John L. Bohn
We briefly introduce the formalism for describing dipolar molecules in an ultracold gaseous environment. This treatment includes the quantum mechanical states of the dipoles, the e…
