Laser Spectroscopy of Basic Atoms and Molecules

将开展的研究包括以下几个方面：1.精确测量氦原子能级的波长方案，这将为当前的理论计算提供检验。2.分子氢电离势的精确测量，将与特拉华大学的爱德华·艾勒合作完成。3.与哈佛史密森天文台的凯特·柯比合作完成的关于原子-原子碰撞中关联效应的理论工作。

The research to be carried out includes the following: 1. A program of precise wavelength measurements of energy levels of atomic helium at an accuracy which will provide a test of current theoretical calculations. 2. Precise measurements of the ionization potential of molecular hydrogen, to be done in collaboration with Edward Eyler of the University of Delaware. 3. Theoretical work on correlation effects in atom-atom collisions, to be done in collaboration with Kate Kirby of the Harvard Smithsonian Observatory.
