Hydroxylamine in Astrophysical Ices: IR Spectra and Cosmic Ray-Induced Radiolytic Chemistry

Belén Maté, Ramón J. Peláez, Germán Molpeceres +10

Gas-phase hydroxylamine (NHOH) has recently been detected within dense clouds in the interstellar medium. However, it is also likely present within interstellar ices, as well a…

Diffusion of CH in amorphous solid water

Belén Maté, Stephanie Cazaux, Miguel Angel Satorre +4

Context. The diffusion of volatile species on amorphous solid water ice affects the chemistry on dust grains in the interstellar medium as well as the trapping of gases enriching p…

Twelve years before the quantum no-cloning theorem

Juan Ortigoso

The celebrated quantum no-cloning theorem establishes the impossibility of making a perfect copy of an unknown quantum state. The discovery of this important theorem for the field…

Unphysical artifacts are responsible for molecular orientation with half-cycle pulses

Juan Ortigoso

Sub-cycle electromagnetic pulses in the Terahertz region are considered to be one of the best ways to orient molecules. The simplest option corresponds to half-cycles pulses in the…

Quantum adiabatic theorem in light of the Marzlin-Sanders inconsistency

Juan Ortigoso

A consensus that questions the perfunctory use of the quantum adiabatic theorem has emerged since Marzlin and Sanders [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 93}, 160408 (2004)] showed the existenc…

Mechanism of Molecular Orientation by Single-cycle Pulses

Juan Ortigoso

Significant molecular orientation can be achieved by time-symmetric single-cycle pulses of zero area, in the THz region. We show that in spite of the existence of a combined time-s…

Tailored particle current in an optical lattice by a weak time-symmetric harmonic potential

Julio Santos, Rafael A. Molina, Juan Ortigoso +1

Quantum ratchets exhibit asymptotic currents when driven by a time-periodic potential of zero mean if the proper spatio-temporal symmetries are broken. There has been recent debate…

Controlled localization of interacting bosons in a disordered optical lattice

J. Santos, R. A. Molina, J. Ortigoso +1

We show that tunneling and localization properties of interacting ultracold atoms in an optical lattice can be controlled by adiabatically turning on a fast oscillatory force even…
