Magneto-optical trapping of a heavy polyatomic molecule for precision measurement
Zack D. Lasner, Alexander Frenett, Hiromitsu Sawaoka +10
We report a magneto-optical trap of strontium monohydroxide (SrOH) containing 2000(600) molecules at a temperature of 1.2(3) mK. The lifetime is 91(9) ms, which is limited by decay…
Observation and laser spectroscopy of ytterbium monomethoxide, YbOCH
Benjamin L. Augenbraun, Zack D. Lasner, Alexander Frenett +4
We describe a laser spectroscopic study of ytterbium monomethoxide, YbOCH, a species of interest to searches for time-reversal symmetry violation using laser-cooled molecules.…
Laser-Cooled Polyatomic Molecules for Improved Electron Electric Dipole Moment Searches
Benjamin L. Augenbraun, Zack D. Lasner, Alexander Frenett +4
Doppler and Sisyphus cooling of YbOH are achieved and studied. This polyatomic molecule has high sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model and represents a new class…
Two-photon vibrational transitions in as probes of variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio
Ryan Carollo, Alexander Frenett, David Hanneke
Vibrational overtones in deeply bound molecules are sensitive probes for variation of the proton-to-electron mass ratio . In nonpolar molecules, these overtones may be driven as…
