A supersonic beam of metastable neon atoms has been decelerated by exploiting the interaction between the magnetic moment of the atoms and time-dependent inhomogeneous magnetic fields in a multistage Zeeman decelerator. Using 91…

We describe the design, construction, and characterization of a permanent magnet based, transverse-field Zeeman slower for lithium atoms. We use off-the-shelf compact permanent bar magnets in the Halbach configuration to create a uniform…

In this paper, we study the traveling wave solutions to the density-suppressed motility model describing the ``self-trapping'' mechanism that induces spatio-temporal pattern formations observed in the experiment. We establish the existence…

We demonstrate the deceleration of heavy polar molecules in low-field seeking states by combining a cryogenic source and a travelling-wave Stark decelerator. The cryogenic source provides a high intensity beam with low speed and…

Stark deceleration is a technique that uses time-varying inhomogeneous electric fields to decelerate polar molecules for various molecular beam and trapping experiments. New ring-geometry Stark decelerators with continuously varying…

We present a robust, continuous molecular decelerator that employs high magnetic fields and few optical pumping steps. CaOH molecules are slowed, accumulating at low velocities in a range sufficient for loading both magnetic and…

We investigate the possiblity of creating directed spin-polarized currents in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) subject to an asymmetric magnetic field and an external adiabatic driving. We thereby generalize concepts of quantum charge…

We present a novel type of longitudinal Zeeman slower. The magnetic field profile is generated by a 3D array of permanent spherical magnets, which are self-assembled into a stable structure. The simplicity and stability of the design make…

We present an analysis of the deceleration and trapping of heavy diatomic molecules in low-field seeking states by a moving electric potential. This moving potential is created by a 'ring-decelerator', which consists of a series of…

We present a novel slowing scheme for beams of laser-coolable diatomic molecules reminiscent of Zeeman slowing of atomic beams. The scheme results in efficient compression of the 1-dimensional velocity distribution to velocities trappable…

This paper presents a new method for generating low-frequency electromagnetic waves for navigation and communication in challenging environments, such as underwater and underground. The main idea is to store magnetic energy in two different…

We report on the Zeeman deceleration of ground-state NH radicals, using a decelerator that consists of 100 pulsed solenoids and 100 permanent hexapoles. Packets of state-selected NH ($X\,^3\Sigma^-$, N=0, J=1) radicals are produced with…

We describe an apparatus designed to trap and cool a Yb and Cs mixture. The apparatus consists of a dual species effusive oven source, dual species Zeeman slower, magneto-optical traps in a single ultra-high vacuum science chamber, and the…

Cryogenic buffer-gas beams are a promising method for producing bright sources of cold molecular radicals for cold collision and chemical reaction experiments. In order to use these beams in studies of reactions with controlled collision…

Magnetic tunnel junctions comprising of an insulator sandwiched between two ferromagnetic films are the simplest spintronic devices. Theoretically, these can be modeled by a metallic Hamiltonian in both the lattice and the continuum with an…

High peak power, tunable, narrowband terahertz emitters are becoming sought after given their portability, efficiency, and ability to be deployed in the field for industrial, medical, and military applications. The use of accelerator…

We investigate creation, manipulation, and steering of entanglement in spin chains from the viewpoint of quantum communication between distant parties. We demonstrate how global parametric driving of the spin-spin coupling and/or local…

The capture of a moving atom by a non-dissipative trap, such as an optical dipole trap, requires the removal of the excessive kinetic energy of the atom. In this article we develop a mechanism to harvest ultra cold atoms from a guided atom…

We demonstrate a compact (0.25 L) system for laser cooling and trapping atoms from a heated dispenser source. Our system uses a nanofabricated diffraction grating to generate a magneto-optical trap (MOT) using a single input laser beam. An…

We present a two particle model to explain the mechanism that stabilizes a bunch of positively charged ions in an "ion trap resonator" [Pedersen etal, Phys. Rev. Lett. 87 (2001) 055001]. The model decomposes the motion of the two ions into…
