The prospect of cooling matter down to temperatures that are close to absolute zero raises intriguing questions about how chemical reactivity changes under these extreme conditions …
Laser cooling and trapping,, and magneto-optical trapping methods in particular, have enabled groundbreaking advances in science, including Bose–Einstein condensation …
Ultracold molecules have important applications that range from quantum simulation and computation to precision measurements probing physics beyond the Standard Model …
Motivated by the success of the flavour physics programme carried out over the last decade at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), we characterize in detail the physics potential of its High …
Ultracold polyatomic molecules have potentially wide-ranging applications in quantum simulation and computation, particle physics, and quantum chemistry. For atoms and small …
We demonstrate the coherent creation of a single NaCs molecule in its rotational, vibrational, and electronic (rovibronic) ground state in an optical tweezer. Starting with a …
Ultracold molecules are ideal platforms for many important applications, ranging from quantum simulation,,,–and quantum information processing, to precision tests of …
We report three-dimensional trapping of an oxide molecule (YO), using a radio-frequency magneto-optical trap (MOT). The total number of molecules trapped is∼ 1.5× 10 4, with a …
Doppler and Sisyphus cooling of 174 YbOH are achieved and studied. This polyatomic molecule has high sensitivity to physics beyond the Standard Model and represents a new …
