Stark deceleration of OH radicals in low-field-seeking and high-field-seeking quantum states

Kirstin Wohlfart, Frank Filsinger, Fabian Grätz +2

The Stark deceleration of OH radicals in both low-field-seeking and high-field-seeking levels of the rovibronic ground state is demonstrated using a single…

Alternating gradient focusing and deceleration of large molecules

Kirstin Wohlfart, Fabian Grätz, Frank Filsinger +3

We have focused and decelerated benzonitrile (CHN) molecules from a molecular beam, using an array of time-varying inhomogeneous electric fields in alternating gradient con…

Precise dipole moment and quadrupole coupling constants of benzonitrile

Kirstin Wohlfart, Melanie Schnell, Jens-Uwe Grabow +1

We have performed Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy of benzonitrile, without and with applied electric fields. From the field-free hyperfine-resolved microwave transitions w…

Alternating Gradient Focusing and Deceleration of Polar Molecules

Hendrick L. Bethlem, M. R. Tarbutt, Jochen Küpper +4

Beams of polar molecules can be focused using an array of electrostatic lenses in alternating gradient (AG) configuration. They can also be accelerated or decelerated by applying a…

Compact in-place gate valve for molecular beam experiments

Jochen Küpper, Henrik Haak, Kirstin Wohlfart +1

A high vacuum gate valve for skimmed molecular beam experiments is described. It is designed with a very short extent of only 10 mm along the molecular beam axis to minimize the di…
