Anisotropic optical trapping of ultracold erbium atoms
Maxence Lepers, Jean-François Wyart, Olivier Dulieu +1
Ultracold atoms confined in a dipole trap are submitted to a potential whose depth is proportional to the real part of their dynamic dipole polarizability. The atoms also experienc…
Experimental evidence of twin fast metastable H(2S) atoms from dissociation of cold H_2 induced by electrons
J. Robert, F. Zappa, C. R. Carvalho +7
We report the direct detection of two metastable H(2S) atoms coming from the dissociation of a single cold H_2 molecule, in coincidence measurements. The molecular dissociation was…
Ion-neutral chemistry at ultralow energies: Dynamics of reactive collisions between laser-cooled Ca^+ ions and Rb atoms in an ion-atom hybrid trap
Felix H. J. Hall, Pascal Eberle, Gregor Hegi +4
Cold chemical reactions between laser-cooled Ca^+ ions and Rb atoms were studied in an ion-atom hybrid trap. Reaction rate constants were determined in the range of collision energ…
Light-Assisted Cold Chemical Reactions of Barium Ions with Rubidium Atoms
Felix H. J. Hall, Mireille Aymar, Maurice Raoult +2
Light-assisted reactive collisions between laser-cooled Ba+ ions and Rb atoms were studied in an ion-atom hybrid trap. The reaction rate was found to strongly depend on the electro…
