Principles and design of a Zeeman-Sisyphus decelerator for molecular beams
N. J. Fitch, M. R. Tarbutt
We explore a technique for decelerating molecules using a static magnetic field and optical pumping. Molecules travel through a spatially varying magnetic field and are repeatedly…

An intense, cold, velocity-controlled molecular beam by frequency-chirped laser slowing
S. Truppe, H. J. Williams, N. J. Fitch +5
Using frequency-chirped radiation pressure slowing, we precisely control the velocity of a pulsed CaF molecular beam down to a few m/s, compressing its velocity spread by a factor…
