چکیده

We study realistic 3D laser cooling of positronium (Ps) in the presence a magnetic field. Triplet and singlet states mixing due to field, dynamical Stark effect, generally produce higher annihilation rates than zero-field case. is efficient only at very low field $B\ensuremath{\lesssim}50\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{mT}$ high values $B⪆0.7\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{T}$. Near $100\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{ns}$ long pulses, spectrally broad enough cover most Ps Doppler profile with energy $\mathrm{mJ}$ range, are required cool Ps. Simulations based on full diagonalization Zeeman Hamiltonian kinetic Monte Carlo algorithm exactly solving rate equations indicate that an (typically from $300\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$ down below $50\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$) possible even also propose moving molasses can well-defined monochromatic beam useful for applications.

Positronium Spectroscopy in a Magnetic Field

Hyperfine spectroscopy of positronium formed in the presence of a static magnetic field is considered. Generalising the situation hitherto developed in the literature, the magnetic field is not assumed to be parallel to the momentum of incoming polarised positrons, while the possibility of electron polarisation is also included in the analysis. The results are of application to high sensitivity...

Positronium collapse and the maximum magnetic field in pure QED.

A maximum value for the magnetic field is determined, which provides the full compensation of the positronium rest mass by the binding energy in the maximum symmetry state and disappearance of the energy gap separating the electron-positron system from the vacuum. The compensation becomes possible owing to the falling to the center phenomenon. The maximum magnetic field may be related to the va...

Enhanced laser cooling and state preparation in an optical lattice with a magnetic field

We demonstrate that weak magnetic fields can significantly enhance laser cooling and state preparation of Cs atoms in a one-dimensional optical lattice. A field parallel to the lattice axis increases the vibrational groundstate population of the stretched state um5F& to 28%. A transverse field reduces the kinetic temperature. Quantum Monte Carlo simulations agree with the experiment, and predic...

Texturing by cooling a metallic melt in a magnetic field.

Processing in a magnetic field leads to the texturing of materials along an easy-magnetization axis when a minimum anisotropy energy exists at the processing temperature; the magnetic field can be applied to a particle assembly embedded into a liquid, or to a solid at a high diffusion temperature close to the melting temperature or between the liquidus and the solidus temperatures in a region o...

Bethe-Salpeter approach for relativistic positronium in a strong magnetic field

We study the electron-positron system in a strong magnetic field using the differential BetheSalpeter equation in the ladder approximation. We derive the fully relativistic two-dimensional form that the four-dimensional Bethe-Salpeter equation takes in the limit of asymptotically strong constant and homogeneous magnetic field. An ultimate value for the magnetic field is determined, which provid...
