Theory for Ionization of Molecules by Electrons

Author(s)
Yong Sik Kim, M E. Rudd
A simple yet effective theory for the total ionization cross sections of molecules by electron impact is described. The theory, called the Binary Encounter

Four-Wave Mixing With Matter Waves

Author(s)
Lu Deng, Edward W. Hagley, J Wen, M Trippenbach, Y B. Band, Paul S. Julienne, J E. Simsarian, Kristian Helmerson, S L. Rolston, William D. Phillips
The advent of the laser as an intense, coherent light source gave birth to nonlinear optics, which now plays an important role in many areas of science and

A Well Collimated Quasi-Continuous Atom Laser

Author(s)
Edward W. Hagley, Lu Deng, M M. Kozuma, J Wen, Kristian Helmerson, S L. Rolston, William D. Phillips
We demonstrate extraction of sodium atoms from a trapped Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) using a coherent stimulated Raman process. Optical Raman pulses drive

Ultrafast Glimpses at Water and Ice

Author(s)
Edwin J. Heilweil
Recent literature reports of transient infrared hole-burning and spectroscopic measurements on water and ice are critically reviewed. Dynamical measurements on

Optical Linewidth Models - Then and Now

Author(s)
Robert D. Larrabee, Richard M. Silver, M P. Davidson
In the late 1970's Dr. Diana Nyyssonen demonstrated that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) could optically calibrate photomask linewidth

Summary of ISO/TC 201 Standards: Introduction

Author(s)
Cedric J. Powell, R Shimizu
An introduction is given to a planned series of short summaries of international standards developed by Technical Committee 201 on Surface ChemicalAnalysis of

A Phase-Field Model of Solidification With Convection

Author(s)
D M. Anderson, Geoffrey B. McFadden, A A. Wheeler
We develop a phase-field model for the solidification of a pure material that includes convection in the liquid phase. The model permits the interface to have
