Theoretical Program

We have extended our studies of collisional processes in gases at ultracold and cold temperatures in researches that are responsive to experiments. We have calculated the 2Sg+ and  2Su+ potential curves of the molecular ion Yb2+ and we have obtained the cross-sections for charge exchange of its several isotopes of Yb 2 + in the parent...

Co-trapping of Cold NH Molecules with N Atoms

A frontier in physics with cold polar molecules is the study of paths toward collisional cooling. Here we co-trap an very low polarizability atom along with a very “atom-like” polar molecule. Earlier work with He colliding with NH found that the inelastic processes were highly suppressed due to the small of the NH ground state...

Realization of a strongly interacting Bose-Fermi mixture from a two-component Fermi gas

Fermions are the fundamental building blocks of matter, whereas bosons emerge as composite particles. The simplest physical system to study the emergence of bosonic behavior is a two-component fermion mixture, where the composite boson is a dimer of the two different fermions.
