A Modern Interpretation of Newton's Theorem of Revolving Orbits

Nolan Samboy, Joseph Gallant

Newton's Theorem of Revolving Orbits derives the force that is necessary to explain a particular precession that leaves the shape of an orbit unchanged. Newton showed that for an o…

Long-range interactions between rubidium and potassium Rydberg atoms

Nolan Samboy

We investigate the long-range, two-body interactions between rubidium and potassium atoms in highly excited () Rydberg states. After establishing properly symmetrized asympto…

Modeling the induced voltage of a disk magnet in free fall

Nolan Samboy

We drop a circular disk magnet through a thin coil of wire, record the induced voltage, and compare the results to an analytic model based on the dipole approximation and Faraday's…

Rubidium Rydberg linear macrotrimers

Nolan Samboy, Robin Côté

We investigate the interaction between three rubidium atoms in highly excited () Rydberg states lying along a common axis and calculate the potential energy surfaces (PES) bet…

Rubidium Rydberg macrodimers

Nolan Samboy, Robin Côté

We explore long-range interactions between two atoms excited into high principal quantum number n Rydberg states, and present calculated potential energy surfaces (PES) for various…

Formation of Rydberg macrodimers and their properties

Nolan Samboy, Jovica Stanojevic, Robin Côté

We investigate the interaction between two rubidium atoms in highly excited Rydberg states, and find that very long-range potential wells exist. These wells are shown to support ma…

Three-atom scattering via the Faddeev scheme in configuration space

W. Gloeckle, G. Rawitscher

Faddeev equations in configuration space and integral form for three-atom scattering processes are formulated allowing for additive and nonadditive forces. The explicit partial wav…
