Rotational and vibrational energy relaxation (RER and VER) of N$_2$O embedded in xenon and SF$_6$ environments ranging from the gas phase to the liquid, including the supercritical regime, is studied at a molecular level. Calibrated…
Collisions between cold molecules are essential for studying fundamental aspects of quantum chemistry, and may enable formation of quantum degenerate molecular matter by evaporative cooling. However, collisions between trapped, naturally…
We use accurate quantum mechanical calculations to analyze the effects of parallel electric and magnetic fields on collision dynamics of OH(2Pi) molecules. It is demonstrated that spin relaxation in 3He-OH collisions at temperatures below…
The suppression of friction between sliding objects, modulated or enhanced by mechanical vibrations, is well established. However, the precise conditions of occurrence of these phenomena is not well understood. Here we address these…
We consider cold collisions of OH molecules in the $^2\Pi_{3/2}$ grounds state, under the influnce of a magnetic field. We find that modest fields of several thousand gauss can act to suppress inelastic collisions of weak-field seeking…
We present the results of large-scale numerical simulations of the mobility of a two-dimensional electron liquid on the helium surface in the presence of a one-dimensional periodic potential. Even where the potential is much weaker than the…
The rovibrational kinetic energy for an arbitrary number of rigid molecules is computed. The result has the same general form as the kinetic energy in the molecular rovibrational Hamiltonian, although certain quantities are augmented to…
We measure and theoretically determine the effect of molecular rotational splitting on Zeeman relaxation rates in collisions of cold Triplet-Sigma molecules with helium atoms in a magnetic field. All four stable isotopomers of the imidogen…
The interaction between vortex beam (VB) and molecule has drawn much attention in recent years, but the lack of theoretical method somehow limits its further analysis, especially when the molecular rotational degree of freedom is involved…
While linear molecules in their vibrational ground state cannot carry angular momentum around their symmetry axis, the presence of vibrational excitations can induce deformations away from linearity and therefore also allow angular momentum…
Collisions of polar $^{1}\Sigma$ state molecules at ultralow energies are considered, within a model that accounts for long-range dipole-dipole interactions, plus rotation of the molecules. We predict a substantial suppression of…
Ultracold collisions of LiO molecules in the $^{2}\Pi_{3/2}$ ground state are considered, under the influence of either an external magnetic or electric field. Inelastic collisions are shown to be suppressed in the presence of modest…
We investigate the properties of two interacting ultracold polar molecules described as distinguishable quantum rigid rotors, trapped in a one-dimensional harmonic potential. The molecules interact via a multichannel two-body contact…
A decrease in the rotational period observed in torsional oscillator measurements was recently taken as a possible indication of a supersolid state of helium. We reexamine this interpretation and note that the decrease in the rotation…
We present an experimental study of the dissociative excitation in the collision of helium ions with nitrogen and oxygen molecules for collision energy of $0.7-10$ keV. Absolute emission cross sections are measured and reported for most…
We describe the collisional interaction between two different atoms that are trapped in a harmonic potential. The atoms are exposed to a magnetic field, which is modulated in the vicinity of an s-wave Feshbach resonance, and we study the…
The formation of diatomic molecules with rotational and vibrational coherence is demonstrated experimentally in free-to-bound two-photon femtosecond photoassociation of hot atoms. In a thermal gas at a temperature of 1000 K, pairs of…
Experimental data on multiplicities and kinematical characteristics of $\pi^-$, $\pi^+$ mesons and protons in the interactions of protons with carbon nucleus at momentum 4.2 GeV/c in a dependence of collision centrality are analyzed.…
Several alternative methods for description of interaction between rotation and vibration are compared and contrasted using hyper-spherical coordinates for a triatomic molecule. These methods differ by the choice of z-axis and by the…
Whereas collisions between atoms and molecules are largely understood, collisions between two molecules have proven much harder to study. In both experiment and theory, our ability to determine quantum state-resolved bimolecular cross…
