Trap-assisted complexes in cold atom-ion collisions
H. Hirzler, E. Trimby, R. Gerritsma +2
We theoretically investigate the trap-assisted formation of complexes in atom-ion collisions and their impact on the stability of the trapped ion. The time-dependent potential of t…
Observation of Chemical Reactions between a Trapped Ion and Ultracold Feshbach Dimers
H. Hirzler, R. S. Lous, E. Trimby +3
We measure chemical reactions between a single trapped Yb ion immersed in an ultracold bath of Li atoms containing trace amounts of Li dimers. This produces LiY…
Buffer gas cooling of ions in time-dependent traps using ultracold atoms
E. Trimby, H. Hirzler, H. Fürst +3
For exploration of quantum effects with hybrid atom-ion systems, reaching ultracold temperatures is the major limiting factor. In this work, we present results on numerical simulat…
Rydberg atom-ion collisions in cold environments
Henrik Hirzler, Jesús Pérez-Ríos
Low-energy collisions of Rydberg atom-ion systems are investigated theoretically. We present the parameter space associated with suitable approaches for the dynamics of Rydberg ato…
Controlling the nature of a charged impurity in a bath of Feshbach dimers
Henrik Hirzler, Eleanor Trimby, Rianne S. Lous +3
We theoretically study the dynamics of a trapped ion that is immersed in an ultracold gas of weakly bound atomic dimers created by a Feshbach resonance. Using quasi-classical simul…
Experimental setup for studying an ultracold mixture of trapped Yb-Li
H. Hirzler, T. Feldker, H. Fürst +7
We describe and characterize an experimental apparatus that has been used to study interactions between ultracold lithium atoms and ytterbium ions. The preparation of ultracold clo…
Buffer gas cooling of a trapped ion to the quantum regime
T. Feldker, H. Fürst, H. Hirzler +5
Great advances in precision quantum measurement have been achieved with trapped ions and atomic gases at the lowest possible temperatures. These successes have inspired ideas to me…
Observation of Interactions between Trapped Ions and Ultracold Rydberg Atoms
N. V. Ewald, T. Feldker, H. Hirzler +2
We report on the observation of interactions between ultracold Rydberg atoms and ions in a Paul trap. The rate of observed inelastic collisions, which manifest themselves as charge…
