We explore the character of a novel set of ``field-linked'' states that were predicted in [A. V. Avdeenkov and J. L. Bohn, Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 043006 (2003)]. These states exist at ultralow temperatures in the presence of an electrostatic…
Recent work from our research group has demonstrated that symmetry-projected Hartree--Fock (HF) methods provide a compact representation of molecular ground state wavefunctions based on a superposition of non-orthogonal Slater determinants.…
Efimov states are a sequence of shallow three-body bound states that arise when the two-body scattering length is much larger than the range of the interaction. The binding energies of these states are described as a function of the…

Evidence for particle stability of Lambda-Lambda hydrogen-4 (4LLH) has been suggested by the BNL-AGS E906 experiment. We report on Faddeev-Yakubovsky calculations for the four-body Lambda-Lambda-p-n system using Lambda-N interactions which…
We perform a calculation of quantum electrodynamics effects in excited states with $l>1$ of arbitrary two-body systems up to $\alpha^6\,\mu$ order. The obtained results are valid for hadronic atoms, as long as the strong interaction effects…
In weakly bound diatomic molecules, energy levels are closely spaced and thus more susceptible to mixing by magnetic fields than in the constituent atoms. We use this effect to control the strengths of forbidden optical transitions in…
Binding of few-electron systems in two-dimensional potential cavities in the presence of an external magnetic field is studied with the exact diagonalization approach. We demonstrate that for shallow cavities the few-electron system becomes…

We present a comprehensive theoretical study of the electronic structures of the Yb atom and the Yb$_2$ molecule, respectively, focusing on their ground and lowest-lying electronically excited states. Our study includes various…
As it is well known there may arise situations when an interaction between electrons is attractive. A weak attraction should manifest itself strongly in 1D systems, since it can create two-electron bound states. This paper interprets the…
The binding energy of an Efimov trimer state was precisely determined via radio-frequency association. It is found that the measurement results significantly shift with temperature, but that the shift can be made negligible at the lowest…
The electric dipole polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilities for the lithium isotopes $^6$Li and $^7$Li in the ground state $2^2S$ and the excited states $2^2P$ and $3^2D$, as well as the leading resonance and dispersion long-range…
A theory of charged excitons X- in a dilute 2D electron gas in a high magnetic field is presented. In contrast to previous calculations, three bound X- states (one singlet and two triplets) are found in a narrow and symmetric GaAs quantum…
Arguments are presented that the reaction products of central high energy nuclear collisions up to collider energies can rigorously be interpreted in terms of a continuous decoupling mechanism based on continuous equations of motion. The…
