U.S.-France Cooperative Research: Interaction Potentials between Alkali Atoms-from the Bound Molecule to the Dissociation Limit

0003744 Lyyra美国-法国合作涉及A.天普大学的Marjatta Lyyra和她的团队以及里昂第一大学的Michel Broyer和阿曼达罗斯。 他们建议使用新的光缔合技术和高分辨率多光子光谱学对碱原子和二聚体的电子态进行实验和理论研究。天普大学团队为此次合作带来了高频分辨率和三重共振光谱学方面的实验专业知识。 此外，该法国研究小组在傅里叶变换光谱分析、从头算和长程计算方面的理论专长和精确技术也起到了补充作用。该奖项代表了美国方面向美国国家科学基金会和法国国家科学研究中心（CNRS）提出的一项联合提案。 NSF将为美国研究人员和研究生提供旅行资金和生活费用。 CNRS将支持法国研究人员访问美国。这项合作将促进对分子相互作用行为的理解，并促进未来冷原子实验的发展。磁体的机械性能和用于定制样品性能以用于磁记录介质的方法。

0003744LyyraThis two-year award for U.S.-France collaboration involves A. Marjatta Lyyra and her group at Temple University and Michel Broyer and Amanda Ross at the University of Lyon I. They propose to conduct experimental and theoretical studies of electronic states of alkali atoms and dimers using a new photoassociation technique and high resolution multiphon spectroscopy. The Temple University group brings to this collaboration experimental expertise in high frequency resolution and triple resonance spectroscopy. This is complemented by the French group's theoretical expertise and their precise techniques in Fourier Transform Spectrometry and ab initio and long-range calculations.This award represents the U.S. side of a joint proposal to the NSF and the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS). NSF will cover travel funds and living expenses for the U.S. investigator and graduate students. CNRS will support the visits of the French researchers to the United States. The collaboration will advance understanding of the behavior of molecular interactions and future experiments in cold atoms. mechanical properties of magnets and the approach for tailoring sample properties for application in magnetic recording media.
