Nanometer-sized structures, surfaces and sub-surface phenomena have played an enormous role in science and technological applications and represent a driving-force of current interdisciplinary science. Recent developments include the atomic-scale
Cr(VI) is a well-known human carcinogen with many water-soluble moieties. Its presence in both natural and man-made substances poses a risk to public health, especially when contamination of ground water is possible. This has led the European Union and

Atomic sensing and measurement of millimeterwave (mmW) and THz electric fields using quantum-optical EIT spectroscopy of Rydberg states in atomic vapors has garnered significant interest in recent years towards the development of atomic electric-field

Developing time and temperature transferable coarse-grained (CG) models is essential for the computational prediction and design of polymeric glass-forming materials, but this goal has remained elusive. The dynamics of CG models are often greatly altered

We have performed a reference-free measurement of the transition energies of the 1s2p1P1 → 1s2 1S0 line in He-like argon, and of the 1s2s22p 1P1 → 1s22s2 1S0 line in Be-like argon ions. The highly-charged ions were produced in the plasma of an Electron

We report on the experimental realization of a conservative optical lattice for cold atoms with sub-wavelength spatial structure. The potential is based on the nonlinear optical response of three- level atoms in laser-dressed dark states, which is not

Soft condensed matters characteristically exhibit a strong temperature dependence of relaxation properties due to glass formation, but currently no effective temperature transferable coarse- graining method exists that allows for the prediction of their

We derive a new abundance for vanadium in the bright, mildly metal-poor red giant Arcturus. This star has an excellent high-resolution spectral atlas and well-understood atmospheric parameters, and it displays a rich set of neutral vanadium lines that are

We report radiative transition probabilities for 5029 emission lines of neutral cerium within the wavelength range 417 to 1110 nm. Transition probabilities for only 4% of these lines have been previously measured. These results are obtained from a

Strong dipole-exchange interactions due to spontaneously produced contaminant states can trigger rapid dephasing in many-body Rydberg ensembles [E. Goldschmidt et al., PRL 116, 113001 (2016)]. Such broadening has serious implications for many proposals to

The National Institute of Standards and Technology has recently begun a program to develop a primary pressure standard that is based on ultra-cold atoms, covering a pressure range of 1 × 10-6 Pa to 1 × 10-10 Pa and possibly lower. These pressures
Configuration interaction (CI) methods are the method of choice for the determination of wave functions for complex atomic systems from which a variety of atomic properties may be computed. When applied to highly ionized atoms where few, if any, energy
Atomic Spectroscopy Results from the NIST EBIT facility since the last Symposium on Atomic Spectra and Oscillator Strengths are briefly reviewed. With the exception of the helium isoelectronic sequence, results generally agree with the predictions of
