A buffer gas beam source for short, intense and slow molecular pulses
S. Truppe, M. Hambach, S. M. Skoff +6
Experiments with cold molecules usually begin with a molecular source. We describe the construction and characteristics of a cryogenic buffer gas source of CaF molecules. The sourc…
Characterization of a cryogenic beam source for atoms and molecules
N. E. Bulleid, S. M. Skoff, R. J. Hendricks +3
We present a combined experimental and theoretical study of beam formation from a cryogenic buffer gas cell. Atoms and molecules are loaded into the cell by laser ablation of a tar…
Traveling wave deceleration of heavy polar molecules in low-field seeking states
N. E. Bulleid, R. J. Hendricks, E. A. Hinds +4
We demonstrate the deceleration of heavy polar molecules in low-field seeking states by combining a cryogenic source and a travelling-wave Stark decelerator. The cryogenic source p…
Franck-Condon Factors and Radiative Lifetime of the A^{2}Π_{1/2} - X^{2}Σ^{+} Transition of Ytterbium Monoflouride, YbF
Xiujuan Zhuang, Anh Le, Timothy C. Steimle +8
The fluorescence spectrum resulting from laser excitation of the A^{2}Π_{1/2} - X^{2}Σ^{+} (0,0) band of ytterbium monofluoride, YbF, has been recorded and analyzed to determine th…
