Quantum Effects on Curve Crossing in a Bose-Einstein Condensate

April 1, 2002
Author(s)
V Yurovsky, A Ben-Reuven, Paul S. Julienne
Formation of Atomic Pairs by dissociation of a molecular condensate or by inelastic collisions in an atomic condensate due to time-dependent curve crossing is studied beyond the mean-field approximation. The number of atoms formed by the spontaneous

Author(s)
Laurence C. Chow, Shozo Takagi, Stanislav Frukhtbeyn, B A. Sieck, Edward E. Parry, N S. Liao, Gary E. Schumacher, Milenko Markovic
A previous study showed that a sodium hexafluorosilicate-calcium chloride-based two-solution fluoride (F) rinse containing 6 mmol/l of F was more effective than a 12 mmol/l F sodium fluoride rinse in depositing F on tooth surfaces and increasing oral F

Resonant Control of Elastic Collisions in an Optically Trapped Fermi Gas of Atoms

April 1, 2002
Author(s)
T Loftus, C A. Regal, J L. Ticknor, J L. Bohn, Deborah S. Jin
We have loaded an ultracold gas of fermionic atoms into a far off resonance optical dipole trap and precisely controlled the spin composition of the trapped gas. We have measured a magnetic-field Fesh-bach resonance between atoms in the two lowest energy

April 1, 2002
Author(s)
Eite Tiesinga, Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Paul S. Julienne
We have constructed the $XA I \Sigma_g^+ $ potential for the collision between two ground state Mg atoms andanalyzed the effect of uncertainties in the shape of the potential on scattering properties at ultra-cold temperatures.This potential reproduces the

Stoichiometry of Slag Hydration With Calcium Hydroxide

April 1, 2002
Author(s)
J M. Richardson, Joseph J. Biernacki, Paul E. Stutzman, Dale P. Bentz
The stoichiometry of the reaction between ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) having an empirical formula of C 7.d88^ S 7.39 and calcium hydroxide (CH) was investigated. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to determine the slag consumption

April 1, 2002
Author(s)
W Y. Cheng, L Chen, T H. Yoon, John L. Hall, Jun Ye
A widely tunable and high-resolution spectrometer based on a frequency doubled Ti: sapphire laser is used to explore sub-Doppler transitions of iodine molecules in the wavelength range of 523-498 nm. The wavelength-dependence of the hyperfine transition
