Manipulation of Atoms and Molecules with Laser Radiation and External Fields

2006

The paper provides analysis of a process, when a laser radiation absorption of a specific polarization creates a specific spatial distribution of molecular bonds and angular momenta of small molecules. It is discussed how an external fields electric or magnetic can influence this distribution. Some practical examples involving optical polarization of molecules in magnetic and electric fields are presented.1

Electric-field-induced symmetry breaking of angular momentum distribution in atoms

2007

We report the observation of alignment to orientation conversion in the 7,9 D3/2states of Cs in the presence of an electric field without the influence of magnetic fields or collisions. Initial alignment of angular momentum was created by two-step excitation with linearly polarized light. The appearance of transverse orientation was confirmed by the observation of circularly polarized fluorescence. We present measured signals and compare them with the results of a theoretical model based on the optical Bloch equations. The effect is odd under time reversal and should be taken into account in searches for an electron electric dipole moment.

Dissecting the Hadronic Contributions to (g−2)μ by Schwinger’s Sum Rule

2018

The theoretical uncertainty of $(g\ensuremath{-}2{)}_{\ensuremath{\mu}}$ is currently dominated by hadronic contributions. In order to express those in terms of directly measurable quantities, we consider a sum rule relating $g\ensuremath{-}2$ to an integral of a photoabsorption cross section. The sum rule, attributed to Schwinger, can be viewed as a combination of two older sum rules: Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn and Burkhardt-Cottingham. The Schwinger sum rule has an important feature, distinguishing it from the other two: the relation between the anomalous magnetic moment and the integral of a photoabsorption cross section is linear, rather than quadratic. The linear property makes it suitable …

Dipole soliton solution for the homogeneous high-order nonlinear Schrödinger equation with cubic–quintic–septic non-Kerr terms

2015

Abstract We consider a high-order nonlinear Schrodinger equation with third- and fourth-order dispersions, cubic–quintic–septic nonlinearities, self-steepening, and instantaneous Raman response. This equation models describes ultra-short optical pulse propagation in highly-nonlinear media. The ansatz solution of Choudhuri and Porsezian (in Ref. [16]) is adapted to investigate solutions composed of the product of bright and dark solitary waves. Parametric conditions for the existence of the derived soliton solutions are given and their stabilities are numerically discussed. These exact solutions provide insight into balance mechanisms between several high-order nonlinearities of different na…

HYPERFINE STRUCTURE CONSTANTS OF ENERGETICALLY HIGH-LYING LEVELS OF ODD PARITY OF ATOMIC VANADIUM

2014

High-resolution Fourier transform spectra of a vanadium-argon plasma have been recorded in the wavelength range of 365-670 nm (15,000-27,400 cm–1). Optical bandpass filters were used in the experimental setup to enhance the sensitivity of the Fourier transform spectrometer. In total, 138 atomic vanadium spectral lines showing resolved or partially resolved hyperfine structure have been analyzed to determine the magnetic dipole hyperfine structure constants A of the involved energy levels. One of the investigated lines has not been previously classified. As a result, the magnetic dipole hyperfine structure constants A for 90 energy levels are presented: 35 of them belong to the configuration…

Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Binary Neutron Star Mergers in General Relativity: Effects of Magnetic Field Orientation on Jet Launching

2020

Binary neutron star (NSNS) mergers can be sources of gravitational waves coincident with electromagnetic counterpart emission. To solidify their role as multimessenger sources, we present fully 3D, general relativistic, magnetohydrodynamic simulations of spinning NSNSs initially on quasicircular orbits that merge and undergo delayed collapse to a black hole (BH). The NSNSs consist of two identical stars modeled as $\Gamma=2$ polytropes with spin $\chi_{NS}= 0.36$ aligned along the direction of the total orbital angular momentum $L$. Each star is initially threaded by a dynamical unimportant interior dipole B-field. The field is extended into the exterior where a nearly force-free magnetosph…

Theoretical study of the electron structure of superheavy elements with an open 6d shell: Sg, Bh, Hs, and Mt

2019

We use recently developed efficient versions of the configuration interaction method to perform {\em ab initio} calculations of the spectra of superheavy elements seaborgium (Sg, $Z=106$), bohrium (Bh, $Z=107$), hassium (Hs, $Z=108$) and meitnerium (Mt, $Z=109$). We calculate energy levels, ionization potentials, isotope shifts and electric dipole transition amplitudes. Comparison with lighter analogs reveals significant differences caused by strong relativistic effects in superheavy elements. Very large spin-orbit interaction distinguishes subshells containing orbitals with a definite total electron angular momentum $j$. This effect replaces Hund's rule holding for lighter elements.

Revisiting spin-dependent forces mediated by new bosons : potentials in the coordinate-space representation for macroscopic- and atomic-scale experim…

2019

The exchange of spin-0 or spin-1 bosons between fermions or spin-polarised macroscopic objects gives rise to various spin-dependent potentials. We derive the coordinate-space non-relativistic potentials induced by the exchange of such bosons, including contact terms that can play an important role in atomic-scale phenomena, and correct for errors and omissions in the literature. We summarise the properties of the potentials and their relevance for various types of experiments. These potentials underpin the interpretation of experiments that search for new bosons, including spectroscopy, torsion-pendulum measurements, magnetometry, parity nonconservation and electric dipole moment experiment…

Next-to-leading order Balitsky-Kovchegov equation beyond large Nc

2020

We calculate finite-Nc corrections to the next-to-leading order (NLO) Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. We find analytical expressions for the necessary correlators of six Wilson lines in terms of the two-point function using the Gaussian approximation. In a suitable basis, the problem reduces from the diagonalization of a six-by-six matrix to the diagonalization of a three-by-three matrix, which can easily be done analytically. We study numerically the effects of these finite-Nc corrections on the NLO BK equation. In general, we find that the finite-Nc corrections are smaller than the expected 1/Nc2∼10%. The corrections may be large for individual correlators, but have less of an influence…
