Rotational excitation in sympathetic cooling of diatomic molecular ions by laser-cooled atomic ions
J. Martin Berglund, Michael Drewsen, Christiane P. Koch
Sympathetic cooling of molecular ions through the Coulomb interaction with laser-cooled atomic ions is an efficient tool to prepare translationally cold molecules without, ideally,…

Rotational state changes in collisions of diatomic molecular ions with atomic ions
J. Martin Berglund, Michael Drewsen, Christiane P. Koch
We investigate rotational state changes in a single collision of diatomic molecular ions, polar or apolar, with an atomic ion. Rotational state changes may occur since the angular…
