Four-body long-range interactions between ultracold weakly-bound diatomic molecules
Maxence Lepers, Goulven Quéméner, Eliane Luc-Koenig +1
Using the multipolar expansion of electrostatic and magnetostatic potential energies, we characterize the long-range interactions between two weakly-bound diatomic molecules, takin…
Proposal for laser-cooling of rare-earth ions
Maxence Lepers, Ye Hong, Jean-François Wyart +1
The efficiency of laser-cooling relies on the existence of an almost closed optical-transition cycle in the energy spectrum of the considered species. In this respect rare-earth el…
Dynamics of ultracold dipolar particles in a confined geometry and tilted fields
Goulven Quéméner, Maxence Lepers, Olivier Dulieu
We develop a collisional formalism adapted for the dynamics of ultracold dipolar particles in a confined geometry and in fields tilted relative to the confinement axis. Using tesse…
Model for the hyperfine structure of electronically-excited molecules
A. Orbán, R. Vexiau, O. Krieglsteiner +4
A model for determining the hyperfine structure of the excited electronic states of diatomic bialkali heteronuclear molecules is formulated from the atomic hyperfine interactions,…
Theory of long-range ultracold atom-molecule photoassociation
Jesús Pérez-Ríos, Maxence Lepers, Olivier Dulieu
The creation of ultracold molecules is currently limited to diatomic species. In this letter we present a theoretical description of the photoassociation of ultracold atoms and mol…
Formation of molecular ions by radiative association of cold trapped atoms and ions
Humberto Da Silva, Maurice Raoult, Mireille Aymar +1
Radiative emission during cold collisions between trapped laser-cooled Rb atoms and alkaline-earth ions (Ca, Sr, Ba) and Yb, and between Li and Yb, are studied…
Long-range interactions between polar bialkali ground-state molecules in arbitrary vibrational levels
R. Vexiau, M. Lepers, M. Aymar +2
We have calculated the isotropic coefficients characterizing the long-range van der Waals interaction between two identical heteronuclear alkali-metal diatomic molecules in…
Polarizability of ultracold molecules in the rovibrational ground state of
Markus Deiß, Björn Drews, Johannes Hecker Denschlag +3
We study, both theoretically and experimentally, the dynamical polarizability of molecules in the rovibrational ground state of . Taking a…
