Diversity legitimizes science: Holding basic research in the physical sciences accountable to the public
Kay T. Xia, Thayer L. Anderson, Phelan Yu
The American scientific community is reeling from funding cuts and policy directives that will debilitate scientific research and education. The underlying hostilities fueling thes…
Production and spectroscopy of cold radioactive molecules
Chandler J. Conn, Phelan Yu, Madison I. Howard +8
Molecules with heavy, radioactive nuclei promise extreme sensitivity to fundamental nuclear and particle physics. However, these nuclei are available in limited quantities, which c…
A Molecular Beam Study of the (0,0) A2Π<- X2Σ+ Band of CaF Isotopologues
Termeh Bashiri, Phelan Yu, Nicholas R. Hutzler +3
This study presents an experimental determination of spectroscopic parameters for the less-abundant isotopologues CaF and CaF, alongside CaF, using high-resolu…
Relativistic Exact Two-Component Coupled-Cluster Study of Molecular Sensitivity Factors for Nuclear Schiff Moments
Tianxiang Chen, Chaoqun Zhang, Lan Cheng +12
Relativistic exact two-component coupled-cluster calculations of molecular sensitivity factors for nuclear Schiff moments (NSMs) are reported. We focus on molecules containing heav…
-violation sensitivity of closed-shell radium-containing polyatomic molecular ions
Konstantin Gaul, Nicholas R. Hutzler, Phelan Yu +3
Closed-shell atoms and molecules such as Hg or TlF provide some of the best low-energy tests of hadronic -violation which is considered to be a necessary ingredient t…
Quantum-Enhanced Metrology for Molecular Symmetry Violation using Decoherence-Free Subspaces
Chi Zhang, Phelan Yu, Arian Jadbabaie +1
We propose a method to measure time-reversal symmetry violation in molecules that overcomes the standard quantum limit while leveraging decoherence-free subspaces to mitigate sensi…
Optical cycling in polyatomic molecules with complex hyperfine structure
Yi Zeng, Arian Jadbabaie, Ashay N. Patel +3
We have developed and demonstrated a scheme to achieve rotationally-closed photon cycling in polyatomic molecules with complex hyperfine structure and sensitivity to hadronic symme…
Multivalent optical cycling centers in polyatomic molecules
Phelan Yu, Adrian Lopez, William A. Goddard +1
Optical control of polyatomic molecules promises new opportunities in precision metrology, fundamental chemistry, quantum information, and many-body science. Contemporary experimen…
Probing Fundamental Symmetries of Deformed Nuclei in Symmetric Top Molecules
Phelan Yu, Nicholas R. Hutzler
Precision measurements of Schiff moments in heavy, deformed nuclei are sensitive probes of beyond Standard Model -violation in the hadronic sector. While the most sensitive li…
A Scalable Quantum Computing Platform Using Symmetric-Top Molecules
Phelan Yu, Lawrence W. Cheuk, Ivan Kozyryev +1
We propose a new scalable platform for quantum computing (QC) -- an array of optically trapped symmetric-top molecules (STMs) of the alkaline earth monomethoxide (MOCH) family.…
Determination of CaOH and CaOCH vibrational branching ratios for direct laser cooling and trapping
Ivan Kozyryev, Timothy C. Steimle, Phelan Yu +2
Alkaline earth monoalkoxide free radicals (MORs) have molecular properties conducive to direct laser cooling to sub-millikelvin temperatures. Using dispersed laser induced fluoresc…
Experimental realization of ultracold Yb- mixtures in mixed dimensions
Florian Schäfer, Naoto Mizukami, Phelan Yu +3
We report on the experimental realization of ultracold - (Boson-Boson) and - (Fermion-Boson) mixtures. They are loaded i…
Coherent Bichromatic Force Deflection of Molecules
Ivan Kozyryev, Louis Baum, Leland Aldridge +3
We demonstrate the coherent optical bichromatic force on a molecule, the polar free radical strontium monohydroxide (SrOH). A dual-frequency retro-reflected laser beam addressing t…
