The Rydberg excitation blockade has been at the heart of an impressive array of recent achievements; however, state-mixing interactions can compromise its efficiency. When ultracold atoms are excited to Rydberg states near F\"orster…
We derive a quantum master equation for an atom coupled to a heat bath represented by a charged particle many-body environment. In Born-Markov approximation, the influence of the plasma environment on the reduced system is described by the…
We study an ensemble of strongly coupled electrons under continuous microwave irradiation interacting with a dissipative environment, a problem of relevance to the creation of highly polarized non-equilibrium states in nuclear magnetic…
In the combination of crossed electric and magnetic fields and the Coulomb field of the atomic nucleus the spectrum of the Rydberg electron in the vicinity of the Stark saddle-point are investigated at a quantum mechanical level. The…
We have studied the associative ionization of a Rydberg atom and a ground state atom in an ultracold Rydberg gas. The measured scattering cross section is three orders of magnitude larger than the geometrical size of the produced molecule.…
We suggest that electron-laser interactions can give rise to resonance phenomena as the intensity varies. A new QED perturbation theory is developed, in which the coupling between an electron and the second quantized laser mode is treated…
In this work, we precisely measure the transition energies between the Rydberg state n$\text{D}_{5/2}$ to the nearby Rydberg states $(\e{n}+2)\text{P}_{3/2}$, $(\e{n}-2)\text{F}_{7/2}$ for the range $41\leq \e{n}\leq46$. This was done by…
In excited molecules, the interaction between the covalent Rydberg and ion-pair channels forms a unique class of excited Rydberg states, in which the infinite manifold of vibrational levels are the equivalent of atomic Rydberg states with a…
In this paper we present Classical Trajectory Monte Carlo (CTMC) calculations for single and multiple electron ionization of Argon atoms and ions in the threshold region. We are able to recover the Wannier exponents a for the power-law…
We study the Schrodinger equation for one-electron atoms in space-times with d >= 4 spatial dimensions where the Gauss law is assumed to be valid. It is shown that there are no normalizable wave functions corresponding to bound states. The…
A generalized class of ultra-long-range Rydberg molecules is proposed which consist of a multichannel Rydberg atom whose outermost electron creates a chemical bond with a distant ground state atom. Such multichannel Rydberg molecules…
We obtain ab initio the Hubbard parameters for Rydberg-dressed atoms in an one-dimensional sinusoidal optical lattice in the basis of maximally localized wannier states. Finite range, soft-core inter-atomic interactions become the trait of…
Solving the full classical four-body Coulomb problem numerically using a Wigner initial distribution we formulate a classical-quantum hybrid approach to study triple ionization by single photon absorption from the Li ground state in the…
The energy spread of a focused ion beam causes chromatic aberration that limits the focal spot size and resolution for imaging and fabrication. Ion beams based on photoionization of neutral atoms can have a much smaller energy spread and…
We experimentally studied the Rydberg level shift caused by the electric field, which is generated by Rydberg atom collision induced ionization in a cesium atomic ensemble. The density of charged particles caused by collisions between…
We show that the recently observed class of long-range ion-Rydberg molecules can be divided into two families of states, which are characterised by their unique electronic structures resulting from the ion-induced admixture of quantum…
Ultracold Rb atoms were used to demonstrate non-degenerate four-wave mixing through a Rydberg state. Continuous 5S-5P-nD two-photon excitation to the Rydberg state was combined with an nD-6P tuned laser in a phase matched geometry. The…
We report on the observation of interactions between ultracold Rydberg atoms and ions in a Paul trap. The rate of observed inelastic collisions, which manifest themselves as charge transfer between the Rydberg atoms and ions, exceeds that…
We present theoretical and experimental data on the threshold behaviour of nanodot creation with swift heavy ions. A model calculation based on a two-temperature model taking the spatially resolved electron density into account gives a…
The yield of neutral excited atoms and low-energy photoelectrons generated by the electron dynamics in the combined Coulomb and laser field after tunneling is investigated. We present results of Monte-Carlo simulations built on the two-step…
