Creation and precise spectroscopy of Sr halo molecules
Brandon Iritani, Jingjing Huang, Wenwei Xu +3
We report on the creation of Sr molecules in the halo state and neighboring weakly bound states. Efficient molecule production via one-photon photoassociation relies on…
Assignment of excited-state bond lengths using branching-ratio measurements: The B state of BaH molecules
K. Moore, I. C. Lane, R. L. McNally +1
Vibrational branching ratios in the B -- X and A -- X optical-cycling transitions of BaH molecules are investigated using measurements and {\it ab initio}…
Crossover from the Ultracold to the Quasiclassical Regime in State-Selected Photodissociation
S. S. Kondov, C. -H. Lee, M. McDonald +4
Processes that break molecular bonds are typically observed with molecules occupying a mixture of quantum states and successfully described with quasiclassical models, while a few…
Control of Ultracold Photodissociation with Magnetic Fields
M. McDonald, I. Majewska, C. -H. Lee +4
Photodissociation of a molecule produces a spatial distribution of photofragments determined by the molecular structure and the characteristics of the dissociating light. Performin…
High-resolution optical spectroscopy with a buffer-gas-cooled beam of BaH molecules
G. Z. Iwata, R. L. McNally, T. Zelevinsky
Barium monohydride (BaH) is an attractive candidate for extending laser cooling and trapping techniques to diatomic hydrides. The apparatus and high-resolution optical spectroscopy…
BaH molecular spectroscopy with relevance to laser cooling
M. G. Tarallo, G. Z. Iwata, T. Zelevinsky
We describe a simple experimental apparatus for laser ablation of barium monohydride (BaH) molecules and the study of their rovibrational spectra that are relevant to direct laser…
Thermometry via Light Shifts in Optical Lattices
Mickey McDonald, Bart H. McGuyer, Geoffrey Z. Iwata +1
For atoms or molecules in optical lattices, conventional thermometry methods are often unsuitable due to low particle numbers or a lack of cycling transitions. However, a different…
Nonadiabatic Effects in Ultracold Molecules via Anomalous Linear and Quadratic Zeeman Shifts
B. H. McGuyer, C. B. Osborn, M. McDonald +4
Anomalously large linear and quadratic Zeeman shifts are measured for weakly bound ultracold Sr molecules near the intercombination-line asymptote. Nonadiabatic Coriolis…
