Measuring the stability of fundamental constants with a network of clocks

G. Barontini, L. Blackburn, V. Boyer +41

The detection of variations of fundamental constants of the Standard Model would provide us with compelling evidence of new physics, and could lift the veil on the nature of dark m…

QSNET, a network of clocks for measuring the stability of fundamental constants

G. Barontini, V. Boyer, X. Calmet +19

The QSNET consortium is building a UK network of next-generation atomic and molecular clocks that will achieve unprecedented sensitivity in testing variations of the fine structure…

An ultracold molecular beam for testing fundamental physics

X. Alauze, J. Lim, M. A. Trigatzis +5

We use two-dimensional transverse laser cooling to produce an ultracold beam of YbF molecules. Through experiments and numerical simulations, we study how the cooling is influenced…

Laser cooled molecules

N. J. Fitch, M. R. Tarbutt

The last few years have seen rapid progress in the application of laser cooling to molecules. In this review, we examine what kinds of molecules can be laser cooled, how to design…

Collisions Between Ultracold Molecules and Atoms in a Magnetic Trap

S. Jurgilas, A. Chakraborty, C. J. H. Rich +7

We prepare mixtures of ultracold CaF molecules and Rb atoms in a magnetic trap and study their inelastic collisions. When the atoms are prepared in the spin-stretched state and the…
