Excluding the very shallow potential minimum of the electronic ground state, all bound electronic states of He$_2$ have Rydberg character. Their potential-energy functions are similar to those of the He$_2^+$ states to which the Rydberg…
Accurate $EF{}^1\Sigma^+_g-X{}^1\Sigma^+_g$ transition energies in molecular hydrogen were determined for transitions originating from levels with highly-excited vibrational quantum number, $v=11$, in the ground electronic state.…
We carry out quantum inelastic scattering calculations of collisions of Rb atoms with inverting NH3 and ND3 molecules in the energy range between 0 and 100 cm-1, which are important for experiments using velocity-controlled molecular beams…
Accurate photodissociation cross sections have been obtained for the A-X electronic transition of HeH+ using ab initio potential curves and dipole transition moments. Partial cross sections have been evaluated for all rotational transitions…
We investigate collisional loss in an ultracold mixture of $^{40}$K$^{87}$Rb molecules and $^{87}$Rb atoms, where chemical reactions between the two species are energetically forbidden. Through direct detection of the KRb$_{2}^{*}$…
Accurate experimental values for the vibrational ground tone or fundamental vibrational energy splitting of H$_2$, HD, and D$_2$ are presented. Absolute accuracies of $2\times10^{-4}$ cm$^{-1}$ are obtained from Doppler-free laser…
We report on the production of ultracold heteronuclear YbLi* molecules in a dual-species magneto-optical trap by photoassociation (PA). The formation of the electronically excited molecules close to dissociation was observed by trap loss…
We present the first spectroscopic studies of the $C \ ^1\Sigma^+$ electronic state and the $A \ ^1\Sigma^+$ - $b \ ^3\Pi_{0^+}$ complex in $^7$Li - $^{85}$Rb. Using resonantly-enhanced, two-photon ionization, we observed $v = 7$, 9, 12, 13…
Supersonic beams of polar molecules are deflected using inhomogeneous electric fields. The quantum-state selectivity of the deflection is used to spatially separate molecules according to their quantum state. A detailed analysis of the…
The vibrational branching ratios of SrOH for radiative decay to the ground electronic state, $X^{2}\Sigma^{+}$, from the first two electronically excited states, $A^{2}\Pi$ and $B^{2}\Sigma^{+}$, are determined experimentally at the…
Ultracold ground-state molecules can be formed from ultracold atoms via photoassociation followed by a spontaneous emission process. Typically, the molecular products are distributed over a range of final states. Here, we propose to use an…
Photodissociation of a molecule produces a spatial distribution of photofragments determined by the molecular structure and the characteristics of the dissociating light. Performing this basic chemical reaction at ultracold temperatures…
We perform photoassociation spectroscopy in an ultracold $^{23}$Na-$^6$Li mixture to study the $c^3\Sigma^+$ excited triplet molecular potential. We observe 50 vibrational states and their substructure to an accuracy of 20 MHz, and provide…
A beam of diatomic molecules scattered off a standing wave laser mode splits according to the rovibrational quantum state of the molecules. Our numerical calculation shows that single state resolution can be achieved by properly tuned,…

Long-range metastable molecules consisting of two cesium atoms in high Rydberg states have been observed in an ultracold gas. A sequential three-photon two-color photoassociation scheme was employed to form these molecules in states which…
Within the framework of the quark delocalization color screening model, a systematic investigation of the anticharmed-strange pentaquark system is performed using the resonance group method. The currently estimations predict three bound…
The predissociation dynamics of the vibrationless level of the first Rydberg state 6s (B 2E) state of CH3I has been studied by femtosecond-resolved velocity map imaging of both the CH3 and I photofragments. The kinetic energy distributions…
