This review is concerned with the physics and chemistry associated with the interactions,
collisions, and reactions of ultracold molecules, that is, molecules having translational …

Collisions of molecules in a thermal gas are difficult to control. Thermal motion randomizes
molecular encounters and diminishes the effects of external radiation or static …

Ensembles of particles governed by quantum mechanical laws exhibit intriguing emergent
behaviour. Atomic quantum gases,, liquid helium, and electrons in quantum materials,–all …

Ultracold molecules offer unprecedented opportunities for the controlled interrogation of
molecular events, including chemical reactivity in the ultimate quantum regime. The …

This paper presents a review of the current state of the art in the research field of cold and
ultracold molecules. It serves as an introduction to the focus issue ofNew Journal of Physics …

The goal of the present article is to review the major developments that have led to the
current understanding of molecule–field interactions and experimental methods for …

Scattering resonances are an essential tool for controlling the interactions of ultracold atoms
and molecules. However, conventional Feshbach scattering resonances, which have been …

We demonstrate the production of ultracold polar RbCs molecules in their vibronic ground
state, via photoassociation of laser-cooled atoms followed by a laser-stimulated state …

We numerically study the many-body physics of molecular Bose-Einstein condensates with
strong dipole-dipole interactions. We observe the formation of self-bound droplets, and …

The recent development of a range of new methods for producing samples of gas-phase
molecules that are translationally cold (K) or ultracold (mK) is driving efforts to study reactive …
