It is shown that the residual entropy (entropy minus that of the ideal gas at the same temperature and density) is mostly synonymous with the independent variable of density scaling, identifying a direct link between these two approaches. The residual

We present cross sections for vibrational excitation via electronic excitation followed by radiative decay (ERD), for electrons scattering on all bound vibrational levels of the ground electronic state (X 1Σ+ g ) of molecular hydrogen and its isotopologues

Single neutral atoms in optical tweezers have become an important platform for quantum simulation, computing, and metrology [1-3]. With ground-up control similar to trapped ions, individual atoms can be prepared and entangled [2, 4, 5], and the scalability

Trapped ions boast long coherence times, and excellent gate fidelities, making them a useful platform for quantum information processing. Scaling to larger numbers of ion qubits, potentially solved by photonic interconnects between Paul traps, or by

We experimentally realized a time-periodically modulated 1D lattice for ultracold atoms featuring a pair of linear bands, each associated with a Floquet winding number: a topological invariant. These bands are spin-momentum locked and almost perfectly

We compare the vacuum measured by two portable cold atom vacuum standards (pCAVS) based on ultracold $^7$Li atoms. Our pCAVS devices share the same laser system and measure the vacuum concurrently. The two pCAVS together detected a leak with a rate on the

The increasing CO$_2$ level is a critical concern and suitable materials are needed to directly capture such gases from the environment. While experimental and conventional computational methods are useful in finding such materials, they are usually slow

Spin relaxometry with nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond offers a spectrally selective, atomically localized, and calibrated measurement of microwave-frequency magnetic noise, presenting a versatile probe for condensed matter and biological systems
