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…
Suppression of Excitation and Spectral Broadening Induced by Interactions in a Cold Gas of Rydberg Atoms
Kilian Singer, Markus Reetz-Lamour, Thomas Amthor +2
We report on the observation of ultralong range interactions in a gas of cold Rubidium Rydberg atoms. The van-der-Waals interaction between a pair of Rydberg atoms separated as far…
