摘要:

在参考文献[Phys. Rev. Lett.]的混合陷阱实验的背景下,我们从理论上研究了激光冷却的$^{87}$ Rb基态原子和$^{40}$ Ca $^+$基态离子的碰撞动力学。107,243202(2011)],导致离子损失。冷$^{87}$ Rb $^{40}$ Ca $^+$基态分子离子是通过辐射缔合产生的,我们证明了它们被黑体辐射和$^{40}$ Ca $^+$冷却激光在397~nm处保护免于光解离。这项研究产生的解释直接观察$^{87}$ Rb $^{40}$ Ca $^+$离子在实验中,在其他混合陷阱实验中使用其他物种。基于新的自旋轨道相互作用的分子数据,我们还证实了非辐射电荷交换是主要的损失过程的钙$^+$和获得的速率与实验观察和以前的计算。

英文摘要:

We theoretically investigate the collisional dynamics of laser-cooled $^{87}$Rb ground-state atoms and $^{40}$Ca$^+$ ground-state ions in the context of the hybrid trap experiment of Ref. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 243202 (2011)], leading to ion losses. Cold $^{87}$Rb$^{40}$Ca$^+$ ground-state molecular ions are created by radiative association, and we demonstrate that they are protected against photodissociation by black-body radiation and by the $^{40}$Ca$^+$ cooling laser at 397~nm. This study yields an interpretation of the direct observation of $^{87}$Rb$^{40}$Ca$^+$ ions in the experiment, in contrast to other hybrid trap experiments using other species. Based on novel molecular data for the spin-orbit interaction, we also confirm that the non-radiative charge-exchange is the dominant loss process for Ca$^+$ and obtain rates in agreement with experimental observations and a previous calculation.
