Evidence of Two-Source King Plot Nonlinearity in Spectroscopic Search for New Boson

Joonseok Hur, Diana P. L. Aude Craik, Ian Counts +12

Optical precision spectroscopy of isotope shifts can be used to test for new forces beyond the Standard Model, and to determine basic properties of atomic nuclei. We measure isotop…

Spectroscopy on the eEDM-sensitive states of ThF

Kia Boon Ng, Yan Zhou, Lan Cheng +8

An excellent candidate molecule for the measurement of the electron's electric dipole moment (eEDM) is thorium monofluoride (ThF) because the eEDM-sensitive state, , is…

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…

A general approach to state-dependent optical tweezer traps for polar molecules

L. Caldwell, M. R. Tarbutt

State-dependent optical tweezers can be used to trap a pair of molecules with a separation much smaller than the wavelength of the trapping light, greatly enhancing the dipole-dipo…

Enhancing dipolar interactions between molecules using state-dependent optical tweezer traps

L. Caldwell, M. R. Tarbutt

We show how state-dependent optical potentials can be used to trap a pair of molecules in different internal states at a separation much smaller than the wavelength of the trapping…

Sideband cooling of molecules in optical traps

L. Caldwell, M. R. Tarbutt

Sideband cooling is a popular method for cooling atoms to the ground state of an optical trap. Applying the same method to molecules requires a number of challenges to be overcome.…
