Bright, guided molecular beam with hydrodynamic enhancement.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The authors realize a novel high flux source of cold atoms and molecules employing hydrodynamic enhancement of an effusive aperture at cryogenic temperatures. Molecular oxygen from the source is coupled to a magnetic guide, delivering a cold, continuous, guided flux of 3 x 10(12) O(2) s(-1). The dynamics of the source are studied by creating and spectroscopically analyzing high flux beams of atomic ytterbium.

A Bright , Guided Molecular Beam With Hydrodynamic Enhancement
The study of cold gas-phase molecules is a major thrust of modern chemical and atomic physics[1]. In particular, inelastic collisions of cold molecules have recently attracted widespread theoretical and experimental interest. These collisions are a window into the internal structure and dynamics of molecular interactions as well as being the expected fundamental limiting process for collisional...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Interactions of Relativistic Extragalactic Jets with Dense Clouds
We have studied three-dimensional hydrodynamic interactions of relativistic extragalactic jets with two-phase ambient media. These jets propagate through a denser homogeneous gas and then impact clouds with densities 100 to 1000 times higher than the initial beam density. The deflection angle of the jet is influenced more by the density contrast of the cloud than by the beam Mach number of the ...

Introduction: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the variations in delivered dose to the bladder, rectum, and femoral heads of prostate cancer patients during a course of treatment by image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT). Materials and Methods: Overall, 15 patients with prostate cancer were selected and. Each week, for each patient five consecutive cone beam computed tomograph...
متن کاملMechanisms of crossing for an X-junction based on dark spatial solitons*
We present a fundamental study on the capability of a crossing of two optical waveguides based on dark spatial solitons to act as a controllable optical beam splitter. Our study is based on the fact that the guided beam is diffracted at the waveguide crossing by an effective phase screen formed by the soliton collision profile. We find that when the two dark solitons are immersed into the same ...
متن کاملBright spatial solitons in defocusing Kerr media supported by cascaded nonlinearities.
We show that resonant wave mixing that is due to quadratic nonlinearity can support stable bright spatial solitons, even in the most counterintuitive case of a bulk medium with defocusing Kerr nonlinearity. We analyze the structure and stability of such self-guided beams and demonstrate that they can be generated from a Gaussian input beam, provided that its power is above a certain threshold.
