Penning collisions between supersonically expanded metastable helium atoms and laser-cooled lithium atoms
Jonas Grzesiak, Takamasa Momose, Frank Stienkemeier +2
We describe an experimental setup comprised of a discharge source for supersonic beams of metastable helium atoms and a magneto-optical trap (MOT) for ultracold lithium atoms that…

Production of rotationally cold methyl radicals in pulsed supersonic beams
Jonas Grzesiak, Manish Vashishta, Pavle Djuricanin +4
We present a comparison of two technically distinct methods for the generation of rotationally cold, pulsed supersonic beams of methyl radicals (CH3): a plate discharge source oper…

A Stern-Gerlach separator of chiral enantiomers based on the Casimir-Polder potential
Fumika Suzuki, Takamasa Momose, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann
We propose a method to separate enantiomers using parity violation in the Casimir-Polder potential between chiral mirrors and chiral molecules. The proposed setup involves a molecu…
