Sympathetic cooling and slowing of molecules with Rydberg atoms
Chi Zhang, Seth T. Rittenhouse, Timur V. Tscherbul +2
We propose to sympathetically slow and cool polar molecules in a cold, low-density beam using laser-cooled Rydberg atoms. The elastic collision cross sections between molecules and…
Robust Coherent Control of Bimolecular Collisions beyond the Ultracold Regime
Adrien Devolder, Paul Brumer, Timur Tscherbul
Quantum coherent control of bimolecular collisions beyond the ultracold regime can face a major challenge due to the incoherent addition of different partial wave contributions to…
Ultracold molecular collisions in magnetic fields: Efficient incorporation of hyperfine structure in the total rotational angular momentum representation
Timur V. Tscherbul, Jose P. D'Incao
The effects of hyperfine structure on ultracold molecular collisions in external fields are largely unexplored due to major computational challenges associated with rapidly prolife…
Ergodicity breaking in rapidly rotating C60 fullerenes
Lee R. Liu, Dina Rosenberg, P. Bryan Changala +5
Ergodicity, the central tenet of statistical mechanics, requires that an isolated system will explore all of its available phase space permitted by energetic and symmetry constrain…
Coherent Control of ultracold molecular collisions: The role of resonances
Adrien Devolder, Timur V. Tscherbul, Paul Brumer
We consider the coherent control of ultracold molecule-molecule scattering, impacted by a dense set of rovibrational resonances. To characterize the resonance spectrum, a rudimenta…
Signatures of Non-universal Quantum Dynamics of Ultracold Chemical Reactions of Polar Alkali-dimer Molecules with Alkali-metal Atoms: Li(S) +NaLi() Na(S) + Li()
Masato Morita, Brian K. Kendrick, Jacek Kłos +3
Ultracold chemical reactions of weakly bound triplet-state alkali-metal dimer molecules have recently attracted much experimental interest. We perform rigorous quantum scattering c…
