磁场中的超冷碰撞:减小费什巴赫共振附近的非弹性截面

Ultracold collisions in magnetic fields: reducing inelastic cross sections near Feshbach resonances

R. Adam Rowlands, Maykel Leonardo Gonzalez-Martinez, Jeremy M. Hutson

摘要:

我们对处于n=1旋转激发态的He + NH(三重态Sigma)在磁场中的束缚态和低能量子散射进行了计算.我们研究了能级随磁场变化的模式,并确定了不同区域中近似好的量子数。我们用束缚态计算来定位低能费什巴赫共振。当使用磁场来跨这样的谐振调谐时,散射长度的实部和虚部示出幅度在1埃和3埃之间的不对称振荡和峰值。散射长度在共振时不通过极点。共振行为的特征是一个复杂的共振散射长度a_res。相应的非弹性截面显示出波谷以及共振附近的峰值。这对于实现分子的蒸发和交感冷却的努力可能是重要的,因为它提供了通过调谐接近费什巴赫共振来减少非弹性陷阱损失的希望。

英文摘要:

We have carried out bound-state and low-energy quantum scattering calculations on He + NH (triplet Sigma) in magnetic fields, with the NH molecule in its n=1 rotationally excited states. We have explored the pattern of levels as a function of magnetic field and identified the nearly good quantum numbers in different regimes. We have used the bound-state calculations to locate low-energy Feshbach resonances. When the magnetic field is used to tune across such a resonance, the real and imaginary part of the scattering length show asymmetric oscillations and peaks with amplitude between 1 and 3 Angstroms. The scattering length does not pass through a pole at resonance. The resonant behavior is characterized by a complex resonant scattering length a_res. The corresponding inelastic cross sections show troughs as well as peaks near resonance. This may be important for efforts to achieve evaporative and sympathetic cooling for molecules, because it offers the hope that inelastic trap losses can be reduced by tuning close to a Feshbach resonance.
