Universal response of Rydberg manifolds to standing light waves from the microwave to the X-ray regime
Homar Rivera-RodrÃguez, Matthew T. Eiles, Jan M. Rost
Standing light waves structure the electronic density of a Rydberg atom in a rich but surprisingly systematic fashion. We uncover these systematics, which are nearly universal acro…
Sensing coherent phonon dynamics in solids with delayed even harmonics
Jinbin Li, Ulf Saalmann, Hongchuan Du +1
High harmonics have emerged as a powerful ultrafast probe of phonon dynamics and electron-phonon interactions in solids, with most studies focusing on odd harmonics. Here, in a pum…
Rydberg states with a liquid core
Juan Carlos Acosta Matos, P. Giannakeas, Jan M. Rost
We develop a self-consistent approach that provides an explicit potential for a Rydberg electron whose ionic core consists of a polarizable medium, typically realized with superflu…
Transitional supersolidity in ion doped helium droplets
Juan Carlos Acosta Matos, Panos Giannakeas, Matteo Ciardi +2
He nanodroplets doped with an alkali ion feature a snowball of crystallized layers surrounded by superfluid helium. For large droplets, we predict that a transitional supersoli…
