We show that two-color high-harmonic spectroscopy can reveal finite-size and edge-state-induced dynamic electron correlation effects in a generic nanostructured band-gap material. Compared to the response of a bulk sample, we demonstrate a significant correlation-induced increase in the efficiency of the generated signal over a wide range of frequencies by harnessing the power of these ultrafast many-electron dynamics.

The Coulomb explosion of an atomic gas steered by laser-controlled time-dependent charging can be modeled by a macroscopic system of identical charges whose number is not conserved. We show that such a system can evolve in the spatially homogeneous and isotropic fashion that mimics accelerating cosmic expansions. Specifically, for a constant rate of charge production, the resulting Friedmann-Coulomb equations have a stable fixed point corresponding to an analog of de Sitter space.

Single neutral atoms trapped in optical tweezers and laser-coupled to Rydberg states provide a fast and flexible platform to generate configurable atomic arrays for quantum simulation. The platform is especially suited to study quantum spin systems in various geometries. However, for experiments requiring continuous trapping, inhomogeneous light shifts induced by the trapping potential and temperature broadening impose severe limitations. Here we show how Raman sideband cooling allows one to overcome those limitations, thus, preparing the stage for Rydberg dressing in tweezer arrays.

K-shell ionization and characteristic x-ray radiation by high-energy electrons in multifoil targets 多箔靶中高能电子的k壳电离和特征x射线辐射
Pub Date : 2020-10-11 DOI: 10.1103/physreva.102.062804

Processes of K-shell ionization and accompanying characteristic x-ray radiation (CXR) by high-energy electrons moving through a multifoil copper target are considered. Expressions describing the main characteristics of these processes are derived. It is shown that the average K-shell ionization cross section in the target is not defined just by the target material and the electron energy, but also depends on the number of foils in the target, their thickness and separation between them. The corresponding CXR yield is therefore not unambiguously defined by the aggregated target thickness, but depends on the above parameters as well. It is demonstrated that the average K-shell ionization cross section in a multifoil target can be several times larger than the conventional cross section of this process without the density effect impact. This results in a considerable enhancement of CXR yield from the multifoil target compared to the case of electron incidence upon a single foil of the same aggregated thickness. Comparison of CXR yield in the considered case with the yields of some other types of x-ray emission in multifoil targets is made.
研究了高能电子穿过多箔铜靶时的k壳电离过程和伴随的特征x射线辐射。推导了描述这些过程的主要特征的表达式。结果表明,靶中的平均k壳电离截面不仅由靶材料和电子能量决定,还与靶中箔片的数量、厚度和间距有关。因此,相应的CXR良率不是由聚合目标厚度明确定义的,而是也取决于上述参数。结果表明,在不受密度效应影响的情况下,多箔靶中的平均k壳电离截面可以比该过程的常规截面大几倍。与电子在相同聚集厚度的单一箔上入射的情况相比,这导致了多箔目标的CXR产率的显著提高。并与多箔靶中其他类型x射线发射的产率进行了比较。

Detection of NaRb Feshbach molecules by photodissociation 光解法检测NaRb fishach分子
Pub Date : 2020-10-08 DOI: 10.1103/physreva.102.043327

We demonstrate detection of NaRb Feshbach molecules at high magnetic field by combining molecular photodissociation and absorption imaging of the photofragments. The photodissociation process is carried out via a spectroscopically selected hyperfine Zeeman level correlated with the Na ($3P_{3/2}$) + Rb ($5S_{1/2}$) asymptote which, following spontaneous emission and optical pumping, leads to ground-state atoms in a single level with near unity probability. Subsequent to the dissociation, the number of molecules is obtained by detecting the resultant $^{23}$Na and $^{87}$Rb atoms. We have also studied the heating effect caused by the photodissociation process and optimized the detection protocol for extracting the temperature of the molecular cloud. This method enables the $in~situ$ detection of fast time scale collision dynamics between NaRb Feshbach molecules and will be a valuable capability in studying few-body physics involving molecules.

The Scanning Quantum Cryogenic Atom Microscope (SQCRAMscope) is a quantum sensor in which a quasi-1D quantum gas images electromagnetic fields emitted from a nearby sample. We report improvements to the microscope. Cryogen usage is reduced by replacing the liquid cryostat with a closed-cycle system and modified cold finger, and cryogenic cooling is enhanced by adding a radiation shield. The minimum accessible sample temperature is reduced from 35 K to 5.8 K while maintaining low sample vibrations. A new sample mount is easier to exchange, and quantum gas preparation is streamlined.

Absolute fraction of emitted Ps determined by geant4-supported analysis of gamma spectra 用geant4支持的伽马光谱分析确定发射Ps的绝对分数

The fraction of positronium (Ps) emitted from a surface of a germanium single crystal at high temperature is usually assumed to approach unity at zero positron implantation energy. In the experiment, however, the determination of the absolute Ps fraction is not straight forward since recording a reference spectrum with SI{100}{percent} Ps formation remains demanding. We use GEANT4-simulated detector responses to $2gamma$- and $3gamma$ radiation sources mimicking positron and Ps annihilation inside the (coincidence) Doppler-broadening spectrometer at NEPOMUC, FRM II, in order to derive a reliable value for the Ps fraction re-emitted from a Ge(100)-target heated close to its melting point. Analysis of the measured spectra by fitting the simulated spectra shows an absolute value of $74,SI{+-4}{percent}$ maximum Ps formation, contradicting the SI{100}{percent}-assumption.
高温下从锗单晶表面发射的正电子(Ps)分数通常被认为在零正电子注入能量下接近于单位。然而,在实验中,绝对Ps分数的确定并不直接,因为记录具有SI{100}{percent} Ps形成的参考光谱仍然是要求很高的。我们使用geant4模拟探测器响应$2gamma$和$3gamma$放射源模拟正电子和Ps湮灭在NEPOMUC, FRM II的(巧合)多普勒扩频光谱仪内,为了得到一个可靠的值,从Ge(100)目标加热到其熔点附近重新发射的Ps分数。通过拟合模拟光谱对实测光谱进行分析,结果表明,Ps形成的绝对值为$74,SI{+-4}{percent}$最大值,这与SI{100}{percent}-的假设相矛盾。

Precise control and study of molecules is challenging due to the variety of internal degrees of freedom and local coordinates that are typically not controlled in an experiment. Employing quantum gas microscopy to position and resolve the atoms in Rydberg macrodimer states solves almost all of these challenges and enables unique access to the molecular frame. Here, we demonstrate the power of this approach and present first photoassociation studies for different molecular symmetries in which the molecular orientation relative to an applied magnetic field, the polarization of the excitation light and the initial atomic state are fully controlled. The observed characteristic dependencies allow for an electronic structure tomography of the molecular state. We additionally observe an orientation-dependent Zeeman shift and reveal a significant influence on it caused by the hyperfine interaction of the macrodimer state. Finally, we demonstrate controlled engineering of the electrostatic binding potential by opening a gap in the energetic vicinity of two crossing pair potentials.

Robust laboratory limits on a cosmological spatial gradient in the electromagnetic fine-structure constant from accelerometer experiments 加速度计实验中电磁精细结构常数的宇宙空间梯度的鲁棒实验室限制

Quasar absorption spectral data indicate the presence of a spatial gradient in the electromagnetic fine-structure constant $alpha$ on cosmological length scales. We point out that experiments with accelerometers, including torsion pendula and atom interferometers, can be used as sensitive probes of cosmological spatial gradients in the fundamental constants of nature, which give rise to equivalence-principle-violating forces on test masses. Using laboratory data from the Eot-Wash experiment, we constrain spatial gradients in $alpha$ along any direction to be $|mathbf{nabla} alpha / alpha| < 6.6 times 10^{-4}~(textrm{Glyr})^{-1}$ at $95%$ confidence level. Our result represents an order of magnitude improvement over laboratory bounds from clock-based searches for a spatial gradient in $alpha$ directed along the observed cosmological $alpha$-dipole axis.

Photodetachment spectroscopy of quasibound states of the negative ion of lanthanum 镧负离子准束缚态的光脱离光谱

The negative ion of lanthanum, La$^-$, has one of the richest bound state spectra observed for an atomic negative ion and has been proposed as a promising candidate for laser-cooling applications. In the present experiments, La$^-$ was investigated using tunable infrared photodetachment spectroscopy. The relative signal for neutral atom production was measured with a crossed ion-beam--laser-beam apparatus over the photon energy range 590 - 920 meV (2100 - 1350 nm) to probe the continuum region above the La neutral atom ground state. Eleven prominent peaks were observed in the La$^-$ photodetachment cross section due to resonant excitation of quasibound transient negative ion states in the continuum which subsequently autodetach. In addition, thresholds were observed for photodetachment from several bound states of La$^-$ to both ground and excited states of La. The present results provide information on the excited state structure and dynamics of La$^-$ that depend crucially on multielectron correlation effects.
镧的负离子La$^-$是原子负离子中束缚态光谱最丰富的离子之一,已被认为是激光冷却应用的有前途的候选离子。在本实验中,用可调谐红外光分离光谱研究了La$^-$。在光子能量590 - 920 meV (2100 - 1350 nm)范围内,用交叉离子束-激光束装置测量了中性原子产生的相对信号,探测了La中性原子基态以上的连续区。在La$^-$光剥离截面上观察到11个明显的峰,这是由于连续介质中准束缚瞬态负离子态的共振激发导致的。此外,还观察到La$^-$的几个束缚态到La的基态和激发态的光分离阈值。目前的结果提供了La$^-$的激发态结构和动力学信息,这些信息在很大程度上取决于多电子相关效应。

In the present experiments, La$^-$ was investigated using tunable infrared photodetachment spectroscopy. The relative signal for neutral atom production was measured with a crossed ion-beam--laser-beam apparatus over the photon energy range 590 - 920 meV (2100 - 1350 nm) to probe the continuum region above the La neutral atom ground state. Eleven prominent peaks were observed in the La$^-$ photodetachment cross section due to resonant excitation of quasibound transient negative ion states in the continuum which subsequently autodetach. In addition, thresholds were observed for photodetachment from several bound states of La$^-$ to both ground and excited states of La. The present results provide information on the excited state structure and dynamics of La$^-$ that depend crucially on multielectron correlation effects.","PeriodicalId":8441,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Atomic Physics","volume":"42 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89587653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
