Observation of -symmetry ultralong-range Rydberg molecules

Matthew T. Eiles, Aleksandr Zaitsev, Dominik Dorer +5

We observe weakly-bound -symmetry electronic states in the spectroscopy of Rb+Rb() ultralong-range Rydberg molecules. We detect these molecul…

Universal response of Rydberg manifolds to standing light waves from the microwave to the X-ray regime

Homar Rivera-Rodríguez, Matthew T. Eiles, Jan M. Rost

Standing light waves structure the electronic density of a Rydberg atom in a rich but surprisingly systematic fashion. We uncover these systematics, which are nearly universal acro…

Microscopic Rydberg electron orbit manipulation with optical tweezers

Homar Rivera-Rodríguez, Matthew T. Eiles, Tilman Pfau +1

Laser cooling and trapping of atomic matter waves in optical potentials has enabled rapid progress in quantum science, particularly when combined with Rydberg excitation of the ato…

Revealing electron-ytterbium interactions through Rydberg molecular spectroscopy

Tangi Legrand, Xin Wang, Milena Simić +5

Divalent atoms have emerged as powerful alternatives to alkalis in ultracold atom platforms, offering unique advantages arising from their two-electron structure. Among these speci…

Observation of spin singlet butterfly Rydberg molecules in an ultracold atomic Rb gas

Markus Exner, Rohan Srikumar, Richard Blättner +4

We report the observation of spin-singlet ultra-long range Rydberg butterfly molecules consisting of a ground-state atom bound to a Rydberg atom by -wave scattering of Rb…

Vibrationally highly excited trilobite molecules stabilized by non-adiabatic coupling

Rohan Srikumar, Markus Exner, Richard Blättner +3

We report on the observation of highly excited ( vibrational states of a trilobite ultralong-range Rydberg molecule in Rb. These states manifest spectroscopical…
