Long-Range Nature of Feshbach Molecules in Bose-Einstein Condensates

December 1, 2003
Author(s)
T K hler, T Gasenzer, Paul S. Julienne, K Burnett
We discuss the long range nature of the molecules produced in recent experiments on molecular Bose-Einstein condensation. The properties of these molecules depend on the full two-body Hamiltonian and not just on the states of the system in the absence of

Potential Energy Surface Database of Group II Dimer Molecules

December 1, 2003
Author(s)
Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Paul S. Julienne
The purpose of this work is to provide critical atomic and molecular data needed in order to evaluate the feasibility of using laser cooled and trapped Group II atomic species (Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba) and Yb for ultra-precise optical clocks or quantum

Ab Initio Calculation of the KRb Dipole Moments

August 1, 2003
Author(s)
Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Paul S. Julienne, Eite Tiesinga
The relativistic configuration interaction valence bond method has been used to calculate permanent and transition electric dipole moments of the KRb heteronuclear molecule as a function of internuclear separation. The permanent dipole moment of the ground

Creation of a Dipolar Superfluid in Optical Lattices

March 1, 2003
Author(s)
B Damski, L Santos, E Tiemann, M Lewenstein, Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Paul S. Julienne, W.H. Zoller
We show that by loading a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of two different atomic species into an optical lattice, it is possible to achieve a Mott-insulator phase with exactly one atom of each species per lattice site. A subsequent photo-association leads

Decay and Revival of Phase Coherence of a Bose-Einstein Condensate in a One-Dimensional Lattice

March 1, 2003
Author(s)
O Morsch, J H. Muller, D Ciampini, M Cristiani, P B. Blakie, Carl J. Williams, Paul S. Julienne, E Arimondo
The mode structure of a Bose-Einstein condensate non-adiabatically loaded into a one-dimensional optical lattice is studied by analyzing the visibility of the interference pattern as well as the radial profile of the condensate after a time-of-flight. A

Ultracold Collision Properties of Metastable Alkaline-Earth Atoms

February 1, 2003
Author(s)
A Derevianko, S. G. Porsev, Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Eite Tiesinga, Paul S. Julienne
Ultra-cold collisions of spin-polarized Mg, Ca, and Sr in the metastable 3P2 excited state are investigated. We show the existence of purely long-range potentials, determine the scattering length, and estimate the collisional loss rate as a function of
