Two-photon optical shielding of collisions between ultracold polar molecules
Charbel Karam, Mara Meyer zum Alten Borgloh, Romain Vexiau +5
We propose a method to engineer repulsive long-range interactions between ultracold ground-state molecules using optical fields, thus preventing short-range collisional losses. It…
Interaction of two Rydberg atoms in the vicinity of an optical nanofibre
E. Stourm, M. Lepers, J. Robert +3
We consider two rubidium atoms, prepared in the same S or P Rydberg states near an optical nanofibre. We determine the van der Waals interaction between them and identify novel fea…
Spontaneous emission and energy shifts of a Rydberg rubidium atom close to an optical nanofiber
E. Stourm, M. Lepers, J. Robert +3
In this paper, we report on numerical calculations of the spontaneous emission rates and Lamb shifts of a atom in a Rydberg-excited state lo…
Dynamic dipole polarizabilities of heteronuclear alkali dimers: optical response, trapping and control of ultracold molecules
R. Vexiau, D. Borsalino, M. Lepers +4
In this article we address the general approach for calculating dynamical dipole polarizabilities of small quantum systems, based on a sum-over-states formula involving in principl…
Long-range interactions between ultracold atoms and molecules
Maxence Lepers, Olivier Dulieu
The term "long-range interactions" refers to electrostatic and magnetostatic potential energies between atoms and molecules with mutual distances ranging from a few tens to a few h…
Ultracold atom-dimer long-range interactions beyond the expansion
Maxence Lepers, Olivier Dulieu
We investigate theoretically the combination of first-order quadrupole-quadrupole and second-order dipole-dipole effects on the long-range electrostatic interactions between a grou…
