Photoassociative Spectroscopy of Sr
J. C. Hill, W. Huie, P. Lunia +4
We demonstrate photoassociation (PA) of ultracold fermionic Sr atoms. The binding energies of a series of molecular states on the SP mol…
Rabi Oscillations between Atomic and Molecular Condensates Driven with Coherent One-Color Photoassociation
Mi Yan, B. J. DeSalvo, Ying Huang +2
We demonstrate coherent one-color photoassociation of a Bose-Einstein condensate, which results in Rabi oscillations between atomic and molecular condensates. We attain atom-molecu…
Strongly Coupled Plasmas via Rydberg-Blockade of Cold Atoms
G. Bannasch, T. C. Killian, T. Pohl
We propose and analyze a new scheme to produce ultracold neutral plasmas deep in the strongly coupled regime. The method exploits the interaction blockade between cold atoms excite…
Creating Non-Maxwellian Velocity Distributions in Ultracold Plasmas
J. Castro, G. Bannasch, P. McQuillen +2
We present techniques to perturb, measure and model the ion velocity distribution in an ultracold neutral plasma produced by photoionization of strontium atoms. By optical pumping…
Repumping and spectroscopy of laser-cooled Sr atoms using the (5s5p)3P2 - (5s4d)3D2 transition
P. G. Mickelson, Y. N. Martinez de Escobar, P. Anzel +5
We describe repumping and spectroscopy of laser-cooled strontium (Sr) atoms using the (5s5p)3P2 - (5s4d)3D2 transition. Atom number in a magneto-optical trap is enhanced by driving…
Numerical modeling of collisional dynamics of Sr in an optical dipole trap
M. Yan, R. Chakraborty, A. Mazurenko +4
We describe a model of inelastic and elastic collisional dynamics of atoms in an optical dipole trap that utilizes numerical evaluation of statistical mechanical quantities and num…
