Calculations of static dipole polarizabilities of alkali dimers. Prospects for alignment of ultracold molecules
Johannes Deiglmayr, Mireille Aymar, Roland Wester +2
The rapid development of experimental techniques to produce ultracold alkali molecules opens the ways to manipulate them and to control their dynamics using external electric field…
Evaporation of buffer gas-thermalized anions out of a multipole rf ion trap
J. Mikosch, U. Frühling, S. Trippel +3
We identify plain evaporation of ions as the fundamental loss mechanism out of a multipole ion trap. Using thermalized negative Cl- ions we find that the evaporative loss rate is p…
Survival Probabilities in Coherent Exciton Transfer with Trapping
Oliver Muelken, Alexander Blumen, Thomas Amthor +3
In the quest for signatures of coherent transport we consider exciton trapping in the continuous-time quantum walk framework. The survival probability displays different decay doma…
Experimental investigation of ultracold atom-molecule collisions
Peter Staanum, Stephan D. Kraft, Joerg Lange +2
Ultracold collisions between Cs atoms and Cs2 dimers in the electronic ground state are observed in an optically trapped gas of atoms and molecules. The Cs2 molecules are formed in…
Saturation of Cs2 Photoassociation in an Optical Dipole Trap
S. D. Kraft, M. Mudrich, M. U. Staudt +4
We present studies of strong coupling in single-photon photoassociation of cesium dimers using an optical dipole trap. A thermodynamic model of the trap depletion dynamics is emplo…
Photoassociation inside an optical dipole trap: absolute rate coefficients and Franck-Condon factors
R. Wester, S. D. Kraft, M. Mudrich +5
We present quantitative measurements of the photoassociation of cesium molecules inside a far-detuned optical dipole trap. A model of the trap depletion dynamics is derived which a…
