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…

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…
