Chiral molecules ionized by circularly polarized fields produce a photoelectron current orthogonal to the polarization plane. This current has opposite directions for opposite enantiomers and provides an extremely sensitive probe of…
We propose an alternative approach to the description and analysis of photoelectron angular distributions (PADs) resulting from isotropic samples in the case of few-photon absorption via electric fields of arbitrary polarization. As we…
We discuss how tensorial observables, available in photoelectron angular distributions resulting from interaction between isotropic chiral samples and cross polarized $\omega$-$2\omega$ bichromatic fields, allow for chiral discrimination…
This paper is focused on showing that the fully differential cross section of ionization during a collision of a proton and an antiproton with a hydrogen atom is directly expressed by the wave function in the coordinate representation. Wave…
We study the influence of the rotations and vibrations of the symmetric top RaOCH$_3$ molecule on its effectiveness as a probe for the $\mathcal{P}$ and $\mathcal{T}$-violating effects, such as the electron electric dipole moment (eEDM) and…
Atom interferometry is amongst the most advanced technologies that provides very high-precision measurements. There can exist a number of obscure forces that can interfere with the atoms used in this instrument. In the present work, we are…
Trapping of single ultracold atoms is an important tool for applications ranging from quantum computation and communication to sensing. However, most experimental setups, while very precise and versatile, can only be operated in specialized…
High-intensity ultrashort X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL) pulses are revolutionizing the study of fundamental nonlinear x-ray matter interactions and coupled electronic and nuclear dynamics. To fully exploit the potential of this powerful…
Monopole-dipole interactions involving scalar couplings between a spin and a massive particle violate both P- and T-symmetry, and can be mediated by axions. We use a $^{129}$Xe-$^{131}$Xe-Rb atomic cell comagnetometer to measure the ratio…
We study theoretically the fragmentation of the helium dimer, $^4$He$_2$, into singly charged ions in collisions with relativistic highly-charged projectiles. We discuss the main mechanisms driving this process with the focus on the…
Sensitivity of the frequencies of twenty two atomic transitions to the variation of the fine structure constant $\alpha$ is calculated. The findings are to be used in search for possible variation of $\alpha$ across our Galaxy using high…
Monitoring and stabilizing the power ratio of laser pairs is significant to high-precision atom interferometers, especially as the compact electro-optic modulated all-fiber laser system prevails. In this Letter, we demonstrate a novel…
We present a detailed study of the effects of imperfect atom-optical manipulation in Bragg-based light-pulse atom interferometers. Off-resonant higher-order diffraction leads to population loss, spurious interferometer paths, and…
The two-photon annihilation of a positron with an electron bound in the 1s state of a H-like ion is calculated within the fully relativistic QED framework. The interaction with the nucleus is treated nonperturbatively, thus allowing the…
The successive ionization potentials (IPs) and electron affinities (EAs) for superheavy elements with $111 \leq Z \leq 114$, namely, Rg, Cn, Nh, and Fl are reexamined using the relativistic Fock-space coupled-cluster method with…
A new class of atomic interferences using ultra-narrow optical transitions are pushing quantum engineering control to a very high level of precision for a next generation of sensors and quantum gate operations. In such context, we propose a…
It is shown that even in the case of a negligibly small change in the gradient of the gravitational field of the mass source in the axial direction, the dependence of this gradient in the radial direction leads to a systematic error in…
We report experimental measurements of the rates of blackbody radiation-induced transitions between high-lying (n>60) S, P and D Rydberg levels of rubidium atoms in a magneto-optical trap using a hybrid field ionization and state-selective…
All available experimental data on the spectrum of singly ionized carbon have been critically analyzed. Measurement uncertainties of all published studies have been re-assessed. The scope of observational data includes laboratory emission…
The L subshell Coster Kronig (CK) transition factors of Gd have been experimentally determined by means of two different experimental approaches and compared to available literature data. On the one hand reference-free X-ray fluorescence…
