Identical-Particle Symmetry-Enabled Complete Coherent Control of Ultracold Atomic and Molecular Collisions

Jing-Chen Zhang, Adrien Devolder, Timur V. Tscherbul +2

We show that exchange symmetry in collisions of identical particles enables symmetry-protected coherent control of the total scattering cross section. For identical fermions, antis…

Rotational decoherence dynamics in ultracold molecules induced by a tunable spin environment: The Central Rotor Model

Timur V. Tscherbul, Lincoln D. Carr

We show that quantum rotational wavepacket dynamics in molecules can be described by a new system-environment model, which consists of a rotational subsystem coupled to a magnetica…

Universality and threshold laws for collision lifetimes at ultralow temperatures

Rebekah Hermsmeier, Timur V. Tscherbul

While collision lifetimes are a fundamental property of few-body scattering events, their behavior at ultralow temperatures is not completely understood. We derive a general expres…

Hyperfine-to-rotational energy transfer in ultracold atom-molecule collisions

Yi-Xiang Liu, Lingbang Zhu, Jeshurun Luke +7

Energy transfer between different mechanical degrees of freedom in atom-molecule collisions has been widely studied and largely understood. However, systems involving spins remain…

Highly spin-polarized molecules via collisional microwave pumping

Rebekah Hermsmeier, Timur V. Tscherbul

We propose a general technique to produce cold spin-polarized molecules, in which rotationally excited states are first populated by coherent microwave excitation, and then allowed…

Magnetically tunable electric dipolar interactions of ultracold polar molecules in the quantum ergodic regime

Rebekah Hermsmeier, Ana Maria Rey, Timur V. Tscherbul

By leveraging the hyperfine interaction between the rotational and nuclear spin degrees of freedom, we demonstrate extensive magnetic control over the electric dipole moments, elec…
