Coherent polarization self-rotation
Roy Shaham, Orr Meron, Or Katz +2
We introduce and study coherent polarization self-rotation (CPSR), a two-photon light-matter interaction in dense alkali-metal vapors that enables both narrowband optical spectrosc…

Constraints on axion-like dark matter from a SERF comagnetometer
Itay M. Bloch, Roy Shaham, Yonit Hochberg +3
Ultralight axion-like particles are well-motivated relics that might compose the cosmological dark matter and source anomalous time-dependent magnetic fields. We report on terrestr…

Probing dipolar interactions between Rydberg atoms and ultracold polar molecules
Lingbang Zhu, Jeshurun Luke, Roy Shaham +2
We probe resonant dipolar interactions between ultracold KRb molecules and Rydberg Rb atoms in an optically trapped ensemble. Through state-selective ionizatio…
