The research undertaken is concerned with Rydberg atoms and molecules. Such systems occupy a special place in the physical sciences: their simplicity makes them vehicles for the discovery of new phenomena which they display with exceptional clarity. The PI will investigate three major open problems which were inspired by the dynamics of Rydberg states in external fields. Using and contrasting classical and quantum approaches, the PI will study sticky barriers to transport in atomic and molecular systems, chaotic scattering of Rydberg electrons, and the manipulation the ionization of Rydberg states by localized control theory. The research relies heavily on the onsiderable progress made recently in the theory of atomic and molecular Rydberg states perturbed by external fields especially in problems involving Coriolis forces, where reduced dimensionality models fail due to lack of angular momentum conservation

所进行的研究涉及里德伯原子和分子。 这样的系统在物理科学中占有特殊的地位：它们的简单性使它们成为发现新现象的工具，它们以异常清晰的方式展示这些新现象。PI将研究三个主要的开放性问题，这些问题受到外场中里德堡态动力学的启发。使用和对比经典和量子方法，PI将研究粘性障碍在原子和分子系统中的传输，里德堡电子的混沌散射，以及通过局域控制理论操纵里德堡态的电离。该研究在很大程度上依赖于最近在外场扰动下原子和分子Rydberg态理论方面取得的显著进展，特别是在涉及Coriolis力的问题中，由于缺乏角动量守恒，降维模型失败
