Resonant coupling in the heteronuclear alkali dimers for direct photoassociative formation of X(0,0) ultracold molecules.
Promising pathways for photoassociative formation of ultracold heteronuclear alkali metal dimers in their lowest rovibronic levels (denoted X(0,0)) are examined using high-quality ab initio calculations of potential energy curves currently available. A promising pathway for KRb, involving the resonant coupling of the 2(1)Pi and 1(1)Pi states just below the lowest excited asymptote (K(4s) + Rb(5...
متن کاملInelastic collisions of ultracold heteronuclear molecules in an optical trap.
Ultracold RbCs molecules in high-lying vibrational levels of the a3Sigma+ ground electronic state are confined in an optical trap. Inelastic collision rates of these molecules with both Rb and Cs atoms are determined for individual vibrational levels, across an order of magnitude of binding energies. The long-range dispersion coefficients for the collision process are calculated and used in a m...

متن کاملFe b 20 01 High - precision calculations of van der Waals coefficients for heteronuclear alkali - metal dimers
Van der Waals coefficients for the heteronuclear alkali-metal dimers of Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs, and Fr are calculated using relativistic ab initio methods augmented by high-precision experimental data. We argue that the uncertainties in the coefficients are unlikely to exceed about 1%.
متن کاملUniversalities in ultracold reactions of alkali-metal polar molecules
We consider ultracold collisions of ground-state heteronuclear alkali-metal dimers that are susceptible to four-center chemical reactions 2AB → A2 + B2 even at submicrokelvin temperatures. These reactions depend strongly on species, temperature, electric field, and confinement in an optical lattice. We calculate ab initio van der Waals coefficients for these interactions and use a quantum forma...
