Universal response of Rydberg manifolds to standing light waves from the microwave to the X-ray regime

Homar Rivera-Rodríguez, Matthew T. Eiles, Jan M. Rost

Standing light waves structure the electronic density of a Rydberg atom in a rich but surprisingly systematic fashion. We uncover these systematics, which are nearly universal acro…

Rydberg states with a liquid core

Juan Carlos Acosta Matos, P. Giannakeas, Jan M. Rost

We develop a self-consistent approach that provides an explicit potential for a Rydberg electron whose ionic core consists of a polarizable medium, typically realized with superflu…

Non-adiabatic molecular association in thermal gases driven by radio-frequency pulses

P. Giannakeas, L. Khaykovich, Jan-Michael Rost +1

The molecular association process in a thermal gas of Rb is investigated where the effects of the envelope of the radio-frequency field are taken into account. For experimen…

Floquet approach for dynamics in short and intense laser pulses

Lukas Medišauskas, Ulf Saalmann, Jan-Michael Rost

We present a two-timescale Floquet method that allows one to apply the Kramers-Henneberger approach to short pulses and arbitrary laser frequencies. An efficient numerical procedur…

Orthogonal flexible Rydberg aggregates

K. Leonhardt, S. Wüster, J. M. Rost

We study the link between atomic motion and exciton transport in flexible Rydberg aggregates, assemblies of highly excited light alkali atoms, for which motion due to dipole-dipole…

Switching Exciton Pulses Through Conical Intersections

K. Leonhardt, S. Wüster, J. M. Rost

Exciton pulses transport excitation and entanglement adiabatically through Rydberg aggregates, assemblies of highly excited light atoms, which are set into directed motion by reson…
