Indirect Cooling of Weakly Coupled Trapped-Ion Mechanical Oscillators

April 2, 2024
Author(s)
Panyu Hou, Jenny Wu, Stephen Erickson, Giorgio Zarantonello, Adam Brandt, Daniel Cole, Andrew C. Wilson, Daniel Slichter, Dietrich Leibfried
Cooling the motion of trapped ions to near the quantum ground state is crucial for many ap- plications in quantum information processing and quantum metrology. However, some motional modes of trapped ions are difficult to cool because they only interact

Atomic and Molecular Databases Open Science for a sustainable world

March 19, 2024
Author(s)
Yuri Ralchenko, Marie-Lise Dubernet, Bruce Berriman, Paul Barklem, K Choi, Adam Foster, Iouli Gordon, Christian Hill, J Kim, DH Kwon, Harold Linnartz, Farid Salama, Hanna Shmagun, P Schilke, D Seo, J Shim, S Shin, Mi-Yong Song, Jonathan Tennyson, Charlotte VASTEL
The building of online atomic and molecular databases for astrophysics and for other research fields started with the beginning of the internet. These databases have encompassed different forms: databases of individual research groups exposing their own

Increased instantaneous bandwidth of Rydberg atom electrometry with an optical frequency comb probe

February 27, 2024
Author(s)
Aly Artusio-Glimpse, David Long, Sean Bresler, Nik Prajapati, Dangka Shylla, Andrew Rotunno, Matt Simons, Samuel Berweger, Noah Schlossberger, Thomas W. LeBrun, Christopher L. Holloway
We show that the use of a probe optical frequency comb leads to dramatically improved bandwidth (as high as 12+/-1 MHz) for the detection of modulated radio frequencies in Rydberg atom-based electrometry.

Stationary solitary waves in F = 1 spin-orbit-coupled Bose-Einstein condensates

February 27, 2024
Author(s)
Ian Spielman, Amilson Fritsch, Panayotis Kevrekidis, T. Mithun, G. Koutsokostas, D. Frantzeskakis
We consider solitonic excitations above the ground state of $F=1$ spin orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensates (SOBECs). The low energy properties of SOBECs in any of the three branches of the single particle dispersion relation can be described by

Zeeman-resolved Autler-Townes splitting in Rydberg atoms with a tunable RF resonance and a single transition dipole moment

February 21, 2024
Author(s)
Noah Schlossberger, Drew Rotunno, Aly Artusio-Glimpse, Nik Prajapati, Samuel Berweger, Dangka Shylla, Matt Simons, Christopher L. Holloway
Applying a magnetic field as a method for tuning the frequency of Autler-Townes splitting for Rydberg electrometry has recently been demonstrated. In this Letter, we provide a theoretical understanding of Rydberg electromechanically-induced-transparency

Zeeman effect in the weak and intermediate field regime of Kr isotopes at the linear plasma device PSI-2

February 16, 2024
Author(s)
Yuri Ralchenko, DIPTI DIPTI, Oleksandr Marchuk, Marc Sackers, Stephan Ertmer, Sebastijan Brezinsek, Arkadi Kreter
Laser absorption spectroscopy provides high-resolution spectra of atomic transitions that reveal many often inaccessible nuances. Correctly analyzing the absorption spectra is impossible without accurately capturing the line shape. We demonstrate in this

Visible to Ultraviolet Frequency Comb Generation in Lithium Niobate Nanophotonic Waveguides

January 15, 2024
Author(s)
Tsung Han Wu, Luis Ledezma, Connor Fredrick, Pooja Sekhar, Ryoto Sekine, Quishi Guo, Ryan Briggs, Alireza Marandi, Scott Diddams
The introduction of nonlinear nanophotonic devices to the field of optical frequency comb metrology has enabled new opportunities for low-power and chip-integrated clocks, high-precision frequency synthesis, and broad bandwidth spectroscopy. However, most

Comprehensive Quantum Calculation of the First Dielectric Virial Coefficient of Water

January 12, 2024
Author(s)
Giovanni Garberoglio, Chiara Lissoni, Luca Spagnoli, Allan H. Harvey
We present a complete calculation, fully accounting for quantum effects and for molecular flexibility, of the first dielectric virial coefficient of water and its isotopologues. The contribution of the electronic polarizability is computed from a state-of

Recommended electron-impact excitation and ionization cross sections for Be II

January 9, 2024
Author(s)
DIPTI DIPTI, Christian Hill, Dmitry Fursa, Haadi Umer, Igor Bray, Yuri Ralchenko
An overview of the current status of electron-impact excitation and ionization cross sections for Be II is given and the recommended data sets for use in plasma modeling are presented. Accurate cross sections between the lowest 14 atomic terms of 1s2nl (n
