Ionization in a frozen Rydberg gas with attractive or repulsive potentials

Matthieu Viteau, Amodsen Chotia, Daniel Comparat +3

We report clear evidence of the role of dipole-dipole interaction in Penning ionization of Rydberg atoms, leading to the formation of an ultracold plasma. Penning ionization of np…

Ionization of Rydberg atoms embedded in an ultracold plasma

Nicolas Vanhaecke, Daniel Comparat, Duncan A. Tate +1

We have studied the behavior of cold Rydberg atoms embedded in an ultracold plasma. We demonstrate that even deeply bound Rydberg atoms are completely ionized in such an environmen…
