自旋极化亚稳氦原子在各向异性简谐阱中的自电离

Autoionization of spin-polarized metastable helium in tight anisotropic harmonic traps

Timothy J. Beams, Ian B. Whittingham, Gillian Peach

摘要:

紧密限制的亚稳态氦原子之间的自旋偶极介导的相互作用将自旋极化的五重态${}^{5}Σ^{+}_{g}$耦合到单重态${}^{1}Σ^{+}_{g}$,从单重态自电离是高度可能的,导致陷阱本征态的有限寿命。我们扩展我们以前的研究球对称谐波陷阱的有趣的情况下,轴对称各向异性谐波陷阱和报告的结果为最低的10个国家在“雪茄样”和“煎饼样”陷阱的平均频率为100 kHz和1 MHz。我们发现,有一个显着的抑制电离,并随后增加寿命,在陷阱纵横比$A=p/q$,其中$p$和$q$是整数,对于那些状态是在没有碰撞或自旋偶极相互作用的情况下退化。

英文摘要:

Spin-dipole mediated interactions between tightly confined metastable helium atoms couple the spin-polarized quintet ${}^{5}Σ^{+}_{g}$ state to the singlet ${}^{1}Σ^{+}_{g}$ state from which autoionization is highly probable, resulting in finite lifetimes for the trap eigenstates. We extend our earlier study on spherically symmetric harmonic traps to the interesting cases of axially symmetric anisotropic harmonic traps and report results for the lowest 10 states in "cigar-like" and "pancake-like" traps with average frequencies of 100 kHz and 1 MHz. We find that there is a significant suppression of ionization, and subsequent increase in lifetimes, at trap aspect ratios $A=p/q$, where $p$ and $q$ are integers, for those states that are degenerate in the absence of collisions or spin-dipole interactions.
