Ultracold Matter - Molecules at Rest

February 1, 2000
Author(s)
Carl J. Williams, Paul S. Julienne
In this issue (1), a group from the University of Texas reports producing rubidium dimers that are essentially at rest, by assembling them from ultracold Rb atoms in an atomic Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). The report (see page 1016) contains several

Determination of the Scattering Lengths of 39 K from 1 u Photoassociation Lineshapes

December 1, 1999
Author(s)
Carl J. Williams, Eite Tiesinga, Paul S. Julienne, H Wang, W C. Stwalley, P L. Gould
We report threshold scattering properties for 39 K(f = 1) atoms obtained from analysis of experimental photoassociation spectra of the purely long-range 39 K 2 1 u state. The existence of hyperfine structure in the excited K 2 1 u state and a knowledge of

Atom Loss From Bose-Einstein Condensates Due to Feshbach Resonance

August 1, 1999
Author(s)
V Yurovsky, A Ben-Reuven, Paul S. Julienne, Carl J. Williams
In recent experiments on Na Bose-Einstein condensates [S. Inouye et al., Nature 392, 151 (1998); J. Stenger et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 2422 (1999)], large loss rates were observed when a time-varying magnetic field was used to tune a molecular Feshbach

Atomic Collisions in Ultracold Atomic Gases

July 1, 1997
Author(s)
Paul S. Julienne, Kevin Jones, Paul D. Lett, William D. Phillips, Eite Tiesinga, U Volz, Carl J. Williams
Cold collisions between trapped atoms are very important in the context of Bose-Einstein condensation. The meaning of the scattering length, and its determination through the precision measurements of photoassociation spectroscopy, are described. This is
