Magneto-Optical Trapping of a Metal Hydride Molecule
Jinyu Dai, Benjamin Riley, Qi Sun +2
We demonstrate a three-dimensional magneto-optical trap (MOT) of a metal hydride molecule, CaH. We are able to scatter photons with vibrational loss covered up to vi…

Chemistry in a Cryogenic Buffer Gas Cell
Qi Sun, Jinyu Dai, Rian Koots +4
Cryogenic buffer gas sources are ubiquitous for producing cold, collimated molecular beams for quantum science, chemistry, and precision measurements. The molecules are typically p…

Ground-state selection via many-body superradiant decay
Wai-Keong Mok, Stuart J. Masson, Dan M. Stamper-Kurn +2
For a single particle, relaxation into different ground states is governed by fixed branching ratios determined by the transition matrix element and the environment. Here, we show…
