Neutral alkaline earth(-like) atoms have recently been employed in atomic arrays with individual readout, control, and high-fidelity Rydberg-mediated entanglement. This emerging platform offers a wide range of new quantum science…
We establish a theoretical model to analyze the photoassociative (PA) spectroscopy of $(3)^3\Sigma^+$ state of $^{85}$Rb$^{133}$Cs molecule. The term energy, spin-spin coupling constants and hyperfine interaction constant of nine…
This comment points out errors in the analysis of 61 magnetic hyperfine structure ($A$) constants of Co II energy levels by Fu et al. [JQSRT 2021, 107590]. The paper was published without full awareness of the extensive literature already…
Optical two-dimensional coherent spectroscopy (2DCS) has become a powerful tool for studying energy level structure, dynamics, and coupling in many systems including atomic ensembles. Various types of two-dimensional (2D) spectra, including…
We present a novel high-power, frequency-stabilized UV laser source at 326.2~nm, resonant with the Cd $^{1}$S$_{0}$ - $^{3}$P$_{1}$ narrow intercombination transition. We have achieved a maximum produced power of 1~W at 326.2~nm by two…
We present a multichannel photoelectron interferometry technique based on trichromatic pulse shaping for unambiguous determination of quantum phases in multiphoton ionization (MPI) of potassium atoms. The colors of the laser field are…
For bare lead ions, decelerated to the low beam energy of 10 MeV/u, the x-ray emission associated with radiative recombination (RR) at "cold collision" conditions has been studied at the electron cooler of CRYRING@ESR at GSI-Darmstadt.…
We study the coherent control of spin tunneling for a spin-orbit (SO) coupled boson held in a driven triple well. Under high-frequency approximation, we analytically obtain the quasienergies of the SO-coupled bosonic triple-well system and…
Atomic devices such as atomic clocks and optically-pumped magnetometers rely on the interrogation of atoms contained in a cell whose inner content has to meet high standards of purity and accuracy. Glass-blowing techniques and craftsmanship…
The propagation of light in moving media is dragged by atomic motion. The light-drag effect can be dramatically enhanced by reducing the group velocity with electro-magnetically induced transparency (EIT). We develop a systematic procedure…
Ground and excited states of a confined negative Hydrogen ion has been pursued under Kohn-Sham density functional approach by invoking a physically motivated work-function-based exchange potential. The exchange-only results are of near…
We measure the spectrum of tellurium-130 in the vicinity of the 461~nm ${}^1\text{S}_0-{}^{1}\text{P}_1$ cycling transition in neutral strontium, a popular element for atomic clocks, quantum information, and quantum-degenerate gases. The…
A Smolyak algorithm adapted to system-bath separation is proposed for rigorous quantum simulations. This technique combines a sparse grid method with the system-bath concept in a specific configuration without limitations on the form of the…
Atoms with a highly excited electron, called Rydberg atoms, can form unusual types of molecular bonds. The bond differs from the well known ionic and covalent bonds not only by its binding mechanism, but also by its bond length ranging up…
We report our measurements of the absolute transition frequencies of 5P_3/2,F = 3 to nS and nD Rydberg states of 87Rb with high principal quantum numbers in a wide range of values (n = 45-124). The measurements were performed using Rydberg…
Detection dead zones and heading errors induced by light shifts are two important problems in optically pumped scalar magnetometry. We introduce an atomic orientation based single-beam magnetometry scheme to simultaneously solve these…
Reaching high densities is a key step towards cold-collision experiments with polyatomic molecules. We use a cryofuge to load up to 2$\times10^7$ CH$_3$F molecules into a box-like electric trap, achieving densities up to 10$^7$/cm$^3$ at…
We present state-selected measurements of rotational cooling and excitation rates of CH$^+$ molecular ions by inelastic electron collisions. The experiments are carried out at the Cryogenic Storage Ring, making use of a monoenergetic…
A fully relativistic approach is presented for the calculation of the bremsstrahlung emitted by an electron scattered off an ionic target. The ionic target is described as a combination of an effective Coulomb potential and a finite-range…
Attosecond dynamics in strong-field tunnel ionization are encoded in intricate holographic patterns in the photoelectron momentum distributions (PMDs). These patterns show the interference between two or more superposed quantum electron…
