Permanent electric dipoles andΛ-doubling constants in the lowestΠ1states of RbCs
2005
The article presents first experimental data on the Stark induced $e\text{\ensuremath{-}}f$ mixing in the $(4)\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}^{1}\ensuremath{\Pi}$ state of the $^{85}\mathrm{Rb}^{133}\mathrm{Cs}$ molecule, as well as the ab initio calculations of permanent electric dipole moments $(d)$ in the $(1,2,3,4)\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}^{1}\ensuremath{\Pi}$ states and $q$ factors in the $(2,4)\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}^{1}\ensuremath{\Pi}$ states. The appearance of the ``forbidden'' lines in the laser-induced $(4)\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}^{1}\ensuremath{\Pi}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}X\phantom{\rule{0.2em}{0ex}}^{1}\ensuremath{\Pi}^{+}$ fluorescence spectrum in the presence of an elect…
Radiative capture of protons by the deformed nuclide232Th
1986
The excitation function for the radiative capture232Th(p, γ)233Pa has been determined in the proton energy range 7 to 20 MeV by an activation method. The results are compared with a compound nucleus model prediction and earlier experimental data for another deformed nuclide176Yb. As in previous cases an enhancement over the CN-model prediction is observed and the excitation of the giant dipole resonance via the direct-semidirect reaction process is a likely explanation. Supplementary measurements of the232Th (p, f) excitation function in the proton energy range 11–20 MeV have been performed.
Measurement of the Magnetic Moment of the One-Neutron Halo NucleusB11e
1999
The magnetic moment of ${}^{11}\mathrm{Be}$ ( ${T}_{1/2}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}13.8\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}\mathrm{s}$) was measured by detecting nuclear magnetic resonance signals in a beryllium crystal lattice. The experimental technique applied to a ${}^{11}{\mathrm{Be}}^{+}$ ion beam from a laser ion source includes in-beam optical polarization, implantation into a metallic single crystal, and observation of rf resonances in the asymmetric angular distribution of the $\ensuremath{\beta}$ decay ( $\ensuremath{\beta}$-NMR). The nuclear magnetic moment $\ensuremath{\mu}{(}^{11}\mathrm{Be})\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}\ensuremath{-}1.6816(8…
Electric potential and field between two different spheres
1998
Abstract We consider a system of two spheres with different radii embedded in an infinite medium supporting an external uniform electric field. We calculate the electric potential in the whole space and the dipole moment of this system using the bispherical coordinates system. Our method is efficient enough to avoid any simplifying approximation concerning the system geometry, the external field orientation and the conductivity of the spheres.
Rotating-field-driven ensembles of magnetic particles.
2019
Vortex patterns in ensembles of magnetic particles driven by a rotating field are studied. The driving arises due to the lubrication forces between the rotating particles acting in the direction perpendicular to the radius vector between the particles. Since the lubrication forces cannot be equilibrated by the radial forces due to the dipolar attraction and steric repulsion, the ensemble is in a nonequilibrium state. Different regimes are found for the dynamics of the driven ensembles---solid-body rotation at low frequency of the rotating field and stick-slip motion of the external layers of the aggregate with respect to the internal structure as the frequency is increased. The relation obt…
Control of Electron Motion in a Molecular Ion: Dynamical Creation of a Permanent Electric Dipole
2007
The dynamics of a diatomic one-dimensional homonuclear molecule driven by a two-laser field is investigated beyond the usual fixed nuclei approximation. The dynamics of the nuclei is treated by means of Newton equations of motion; the full quantum description is used for the single active electron. The first laser pulse (pump) excites vibrations of the nuclei, while the second very short pulse (probe) has the role of confining the electron around one of the nuclei. We show how to use the radiation scattered in these conditions by the molecule to achieve real-time control of the molecular dynamics.
Evanescent light scattering: The validity of the dipole approximation
1998
In near-field optics the very concept of dipole is often used to represent either an elementary source or a scattering center. The most simple and widely used example is that of a small spherical particle whose polarizability is assumed to conform to the Clausius-Mossotti relation. While in conventional, far-field optics this approximation is known to be valid provided that the object is much smaller than the wavelength, its extension to near-field optics requires some precautions. Indeed, in the case of the scattering, by a spherical object, of an evanescent field generated, for instance, by total internal reflection or by a surface polariton, the strong-field gradient may increase the con…
Selective excitation of bright and dark plasmonic resonances of single gold nanorods.
2015
Plasmonic dark modes are pure near-field resonances since their dipole moments are vanishing in far field. These modes are particularly interesting to enhance nonlinear light-matter interaction at the nanometer scale because radiative losses are mitigated therefore increasing the intrinsic lifetime of the resonances. However, the excitation of dark modes by standard far field approaches is generally inefficient because the symmetry of the electromagnetic near-field distribution has a poor overlap with the excitation field. Here, we demonstrate the selective optical excitation of bright and dark plasmonic modes of single gold nanorods by spatial phase-shaping the excitation beam. Using two-p…
Spectroscopy of X2Y4 (D2h) molecules: tensorial formalism adapted to the O(3)⊃D2h chain, Hamiltonian and transition moment operators
2003
Abstract A tensorial formalism adapted to the case of the X2Y4 molecules with D2h symmetry has been developed in the same way as in the previous works on XY4 (Td) and XY6 (Oh) spherical tops and XY5Z (C4v) symmetric tops. Here, we use the O(3)⊃D2h group chain. All the coupling coefficients and formulas for the computation of matrix elements are given for this chain and used in the case of the Hamiltonian and transition moment operators.
AC-Stark shift and photoionization of Rydberg atoms in an optical dipole trap
2010
We have measured the AC-Stark shift of the $14D_{5/2}$ Rydberg state of rubidium 87 in an optical dipole trap formed by a focussed CO$_2$-laser. We find good quantitative agreement with the model of a free electron experiencing a ponderomotive potential in the light field. In order to reproduce the observed spectra we take into account the broadening of the Rydberg state due to photoionization. The extracted cross-section is compatible with previous measurements on neighboring Rydberg states.
