Measurement of charge-exchange between Na and \ce{Ca+} in a hybrid trap

J. M. Kwolek, D. S. Goodman, B. Slayton +4

We present measurements of the charge-exchange reaction rate between neutral sodium (Na) and ionized calcium (\ce{Ca+}) in a hybrid atom-ion trap, which is comprised of a Na magnet…

Model-independent measurements of the sodium magneto-optical trap's excited-state population

J. M. Kwolek, D. S. Goodman, S. A. Entner +3

We present model-independent measurements of the excited-state population of atoms in a sodium (Na) magneto-optical trap (MOT) using a hybrid ion-neutral trap composed of a MOT and…

Loading a linear Paul trap to saturation from a magneto-optical trap

J. E. Wells, R. Blümel, J. M. Kwolek +2

We present experimental measurements of the steady-state ion number in a linear Paul trap (LPT) as a function of the ion-loading rate. These measurements, taken with (a) constant P…

Universal non-monotonic structure in the saturation curves of MOT-loaded Na ions stored in an ion-neutral hybrid trap: Prediction and observation

R. Blümel, J. E. Wells, D. S. Goodman +2

We predict that the steady-state ion number for radio-frequency (rf) traps, loaded at a rate of particles per unit time, shows universal non-monotonic behavior as a funct…

Measurement of low-energy Na^+ -- Na total collision rate in an ion--neutral hybrid trap

D. S. Goodman, J. E. Wells, J. M. Kwolek +3

We present measurements of the total elastic and resonant charge-exchange ion-atom collision rate coefficient of cold sodium (\ce{Na}) with optically-dark low energ…

Off-resonance energy absorption in a linear Paul trap due to mass selective resonant quenching

I. Sivarajah, D. S. Goodman, J. E. Wells +2

Linear Paul r.f. ion traps (LPT) are used in many experimental studies such as mass spectrometry, atom-ion collisions and ion-molecule reactions. Mass selective resonant quenching…
