Sauter-Schwinger pair creation dynamically assisted by a plane wave
Greger Torgrimsson, Christian Schneider, Ralf Schützhold
We study electron-positron pair creation by a strong and constant electric field superimposed with a weaker transversal plane wave which is incident perpendicularly (or under some…
Synthesis of mixed hypermetallic oxide BaOCa from laser-cooled reagents in an atom-ion hybrid trap
Prateek Puri, Michael Mills, Christian Schneider +5
Hypermetallic alkaline earth (M) oxides of formula MOM have been studied under plasma conditions that preclude insight into their formation mechanism. We present here the applicati…
Dynamically assisted Sauter-Schwinger effect - non-perturbative versus perturbative aspects
Greger Torgrimsson, Christian Schneider, Johannes Oertel +1
The Sauter-Schwinger effect predicts the creation of electron-positron pairs out of the quantum vacuum by a strong and slowly varying electric field. This effect can be dynamically…
Improved magneto-optical trapping of Ca
Michael Mills, Prateek Puri, Yanmei Yu +3
We investigate the limiting factors in the standard implementation of the Ca magneto-optical trap. We find that intercombination transitions from the 4s5p 1P1 state used to repump…
