U.S.-Japan Seminar: Field Effects in Cold Atomic and Molecular Reactions

OISE-0729562(斯坦塞尔；佐治亚大学研究基金会，Inc.)美日研讨会：冷原子和分子反应中的场效应该奖项支持东京大学的美日研讨会，该研讨会研究在微开尔文和纳开尔文温度下存在外场的分子反应，这是一个新的跨学科研究领域，出现在原子、分子和化学物理的许多子领域的交叉点上。研讨会将侧重于在外部电场和磁场存在下的超冷化学相互作用的基本性质，从一些不同的角度进行研究。具体主题将包括目前对势能面外场、结合能、寿命和碰撞速率的修改的实验和理论研究。更实用的主题，如有目的地将激光场应用于处于内部和外部量子状态的超冷原子或分子，也将被涵盖。研讨会将汇集约40名美国和日本的顶尖研究人员、博士后和研究生。资深研究人员将提供几次辅导课程，以增强该计划对参与学生的教育影响。日本的同行是九州大学研究生院的木村真雄教授、京都大学物理系的高桥义郎教授和东京大学工程研究所的片森教授。

OISE-0729562 (Stancil; University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc.)U.S.-Japan Workshop: Field Effects in Cold Atomic and Molecular ReactionsABSTRACTThis award supports a U.S.-Japan workshop at the University of Tokyo on the study of molecular reactions at micro- and nanokelvin temperatures in the presence of external fields, a new interdisciplinary research area emerging at the intersection of a number of subfields of atomic, molecular and chemical physics. The workshop will focus on the basic properties of ultracold chemical interactions in the presence of external electric and magnetic fields, as investigated from a number of disparate viewpoints. Specific topics will include current experimental and theoretical investigations on the modifications of external fields of potential energy surfaces, binding energies, lifetimes and collision rates. Topics of a more applied nature, such as the purposeful application of laser fields to ultracold atoms or molecules in their internal and external quantum states, will also be covered. The workshop will bring together approximately 40 leading U.S. and Japanese researchers, postdocs and graduate students. Several tutorial sessions will be offered by senior researchers to enhance the educational impact of the program for participating students. The Japanese counterparts are Professor Mineo Kimura, Kyushu University Graduate School of Sciences; Professor Yoshiro Takahashi, Kyoto University Department of Physics; and Professor Hidetoshi Katori, University of Tokyo Engineering Research Institute.
