Spin-dependent collision of ultracold metastable atoms
Spin-polarizedmetastable atoms of ultracold ytterbium are trapped at high density and their inelastic collisional properties are measured. We reveal that in collisions of Yb(P2) with Yb(S0) there is relatively weak inelastic loss, but with a significant spin dependence consistent with Zeeman sublevel changes as being the dominant decay process. This is in strong contrast to our observations of ...
متن کاملElectron-pair center-of-mass-motion densities of atoms in position and momentum spaces
Spherically averaged center-of-mass-motion ~extracule! densities d(R) in position space and d̄(P) in momentum space represent probability densities of finding center-of-mass radii urj1rku/2 and upj1pku/2 of any pair of electrons j and k to be R and P , respectively. Theoretical analysis shows that in the Hartree-Fock approximation, the individual spin-orbital-pair component of the extracule dens...
متن کاملSelection rules and centre-of-mass motion of ultracold atoms
In recent yeam much aaention has been paid to the quantized evolution of the centreof-mass momentum and position of ultracold atoms in light fields. We consider the effects resulting from the quantization of the extemal angular momentum variables. We investigate how spin and orbital angular momentum of light are transferred to internal and extemal angular momenhlm of an atom in dipole and quadr...
متن کاملInteraction-free measurements by quantum Zeno stabilization of ultracold atoms
Quantum mechanics predicts that our physical reality is influenced by events that can potentially happen but factually do not occur. Interaction-free measurements (IFMs) exploit this counterintuitive influence to detect the presence of an object without requiring any interaction with it. Here we propose and realize an IFM concept based on an unstable many-particle system. In our experiments, we...
متن کاملAntiferromagnetism with Ultracold Atoms
We use ultracold spin–1/2 atomic fermions (Li) to realize the Hubbard model on a three-dimensional (3D) optical lattice. At relatively high temperatures and at densities near half-filling, we show that the gas forms a Mott insulator with unordered spins. To observe antiferromagnetic order that is predicted to occur at lower temperatures, we developed the compensated optical lattice method to ev...
