Quantum Scattering of Fullerene 12C60 with Rare Gas Atoms and its selection rules for rotational quenching
Alexander Petrov, Anna Linnik, Jacek Klos +2
The discovery of the C60 fullerene opened new horizons to design carbon nanostructures with targeted electronic structure as well as transport and optical properties. For example,…
Perturbation-assisted Observation of the Lowest Vibrational Level of the State of Ultracold LiK Molecules
Anbang Yang, Xiaoyu Nie, Hao Lin Yu +6
The narrow transition from the lowest rovibrational level of the electronic ground state to the lowest vibrational level of the potent…
Non-adiabatically driven quantum interference effects in the ultracold K + KRb Rb + K chemical reaction
H. da Silva, B. K. Kendrick, H. Li +2
The K + KRb Rb + K chemical reaction is the first ultracold atom-diatom chemical reaction for which experimental results have been reported for temperatures…
Unconventional Chemical Bonding of Lanthanide-OH Molecules
Jacek KÅos, Eite Tiesinga, Lan Cheng +1
We present a theoretical study of the low lying adiabatic relativistic electronic states of lanthanide monohydroxide (Ln-OH) molecules near their linear equilibrium geometries. We…
Neutral Atoms in Optical Tweezers as Messenger Qubits for Scaling up a Trapped Ion Quantum Computer
Svetlana Kotochigova, Subhadeep Gupta, Boris Blinov
We propose to combine neutral atom and trapped ion qubits in one scalable modular architecture that uses shuttling of individual neutral atoms in optical tweezers to realize atomic…
Rotational magic conditions for ultracold molecules in the presence of Raman and Rayleigh scattering
Svetlana Kotochigova, Qingze Guan, Eite Tiesinga +3
Molecules have vibrational, rotational, spin-orbit and hyperfine degrees of freedom or quantum states, each of which responds in a unique fashion to external electromagnetic radiat…
