Interstellar Carbodiimide (HNCNH) - A New Astronomical Detection from the GBT PRIMOS Survey via Maser Emission Features

October 1, 2012
Author(s)
Brett A. McGuire, Ryan A. Loomis, Cameron M. Charness, Geoffery A. Blake, Jan M. Hollis, Francis J. Lovas, Philip R. Jewell, Anthony J. Remijan
Historically, searches for new astronomical molecules resulted in the detection of favorable, high line strength transitions based on a thermal approximation to the excitation of these species in interstellar environments. Given the temperatures of hot

Anisotropy induced Feshbach resonances in a quantum dipolar gas of magnetic atoms.

September 7, 2012
Author(s)
A Petrov, Svetlana A. Kotochigova, Eite Tiesinga
We explore the anisotropic nature of Feshbach resonances in the collision between ultracold magnetic submerged-shell dysprosium atoms, which can only occur due to couplings to rotating bound states. This is in contrast to well-studied alkali-metal atom

Solution-phase and Magnetic Approach Towards Understanding Iron Gall Inks

August 13, 2012
Author(s)
Harshita Kumari, Steven R. Kline, Cindi L. Dennis, Andrew V. Mossine, Rick L. Paul, Carol A. Deakyne, Jerry L. Atwood
Crystallization of compounds of iron with polyphenols, such as iron gall inks, has been an ongoing challenge. As with iron-gall inks, iron complexes of 1,2,3-trihydroxphenol-containing marocycles have also proved difficult to crystallize. Despite this

Towards One-electron Ions in Rydberg States for Laser Spectroscopy

July 30, 2012
Author(s)
Joseph N. Tan, Samuel M. Brewer, Nicholas D. Guise
Simple quantum systems play important roles in the determination of fundamental constants. Very recently at NIST, bare nuclei created in an EBIT were extracted and captured in a novel compact Penning trap. This is a step towards production of one-electron

Highly Charged Ions in Rare Earth Permanent Magnet Penning Traps

July 13, 2012
Author(s)
Nicholas D. Guise, Samuel M. Brewer, Joseph N. Tan
A newly constructed apparatus at the United States National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is designed for the isolation, manipulation, and study of highly charged ions. Highly charged ions are produced in the NIST electron-beam ion trap

Effective multibody interactions of harmonically confined ultracold neutral bosons

March 21, 2012
Author(s)
Philip Johnson, W F. Flynn, D Blume, X Y. Yin, Eite Tiesinga
We use renormalized perturbation theory to calculate effective two-, three-, and four-body interactions for N neutral ultracold bosons in the ground state of an isotropic harmonic trap, assuming only two-body interactions modeled with a zero-range

Penning traps with unitary architecture for storage of highly charged ions

February 15, 2012
Author(s)
Joseph N. Tan, Samuel M. Brewer, Nicholas D. Guise
Penning traps are made extremely compact by embedding rare-earth permanent magnets in the electrode structure. Axially-oriented NdFeB magnets are used to produce 0.32 T for ion trapping in unitary architectures that functionally couple the electric and

Semiclassical fifth virial coefficients for improved ab initio helium--4 standards

February 15, 2012
Author(s)
Katherine Shaul, Andrew Schultz, David A. Kofke, Michael R. Moldover
For helium-4, we present ab initio, semi-classical calculations of virial coefficients Bn for for n = 2, 3, 4, and 5 from 50 K to 1000 K. Using our values of B4 and B5 and the more accurate literature values of B2 and B3, we argue that the ab initio virial
