Control of Optical Transitions with Magnetic Fields in Weakly Bound Molecules

B. H. McGuyer, M. McDonald, G. Z. Iwata +3

In weakly bound diatomic molecules, energy levels are closely spaced and thus more susceptible to mixing by magnetic fields than in the constituent atoms. We use this effect to con…
