Saturated absorption spectroscopy of buffer-gas-cooled Barium monofluoride molecules

We report an experimental investigation on the Doppler-free saturated absorption spectroscopy of buffer-gas-cooled Barium monofluoride (BaF) molecules in a 4 K cryogenic cell. The obtained spectra with a resolution of 19 MHz, much smaller than previously observed in absorption spectroscopy, clearly resolve the hyperfine transitions. Moreover, we use these high-resolution spectra to fit the hyperfine splittings of excited A(v = 0) state and find the hyperfine splitting of the laser-cooling-relevant A²Π_1/2(v = 0, J = 1/2,+) state is about 18 MHz, much higher than the previous theoretically predicted value. This provides important missing information for laser cooling of BaF molecules.

Theoretical study of spin-forbidden cooling transitions of indium hydride using ab initio methods

The feasibility of spin-forbidden cooling of the In H molecule is investigated based on ab initio quantum chemistry calculations. The potential energy curves for the X~1Σ_(0~+)~+, a~3Π_~(0~-), a~3Π_(0~+), a~3Π_1, a~3Π_2, A~1Π_1, 1~3Σ_(0~-)~+, and 1~3Σ_1~+states of In H are obtained based on multi-reference configuration interaction plus the Davidson corrections method. The calculated spectroscopic constants are in good agreement with the available experimental data. In addition, the influences of the active space and spin–orbit coupling effects on the potential energy curves and spectroscopic constants are also studied. For Re of a~3Π_(0~-), a~3Π_(0~+), a~3Π_1, and a~3Π_2 states, the error from large active space is small. The potential energy curve of the A~1Π_1state is not smooth for small active space. The spin–orbit coupling effects have great influences on the potential well depth and equilibrium internuclear distance of the A~1Π state. The Franck–Condon factors and radiative lifetimes are obtained on the basis of the transition dipole moments of the a~3Π_(0~+) → X~1Σ_(0~+)~+, a~3Π_1 → X~1Σ_(0~+)~+, and A~1Π_1 → X~1Σ_(0~+)~+ transitions. Our calculation indicates that the a~3Π_1( ν'= 0) → X~1Σ_(0~+)~+(ν = 0) transition provides a highly diagonally distributed Franck–Condon factor and a short radiative lifetime for the a3Π1 state, which can ensure rapid and efficient laser cooling of In H.The proposed laser drives a~3Π_1 → X~1Σ_(0~+)~+ transitions by using three wavelengths.     

Testing supersymmetry in the associated production of CP-odd and charged Higgs bosons

In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), the masses of the charged Higgs boson (H±) and the CP-odd scalar (A) are related by MH+2=MA2+mW2. Furthermore, because the coupling of W−–A–H+ is fixed by gauge interaction, the tree level production rate of depends only on one supersymmetry parameter—the mass (MA) of A. We show that to a good approximation this conclusion also holds at the one-loop level. Consequently, this process can be used to distinguish MSSM from its alternatives (such as a general two-Higgs-doublet model) by verifying the above mass relation, and to test the prediction of the MSSM on the product of the decay branching ratios of A and H± in terms of only one single parameter—MA.

MRCI+Q study of the low-lying electronic states of CdF including spin-orbit coupling

Cd F molecule, which plays an important role in a great variety of research fields, has long been subject to numerous researchers. Due to the unstable nature and heavy atom Cd containing in the Cd F molecule, electronic states of the molecule have not been well studied. In this paper, high accurate ab initio calculations on the Cd F molecule have been performed at the multi-reference configuration interaction level including Davidson correction(MRCI + Q). Adiabatic potential energy curves(PECs) of the 14 low-lying Λ–S states correlating with the two lowest dissociation limits Cd(~1S_g) + F(~2P_u) and Cd(~3P_u) + F(~2P_u) have been constructed. For the bound Λ–S and ? states, the dominant electronic configurations and spectroscopic constants are obtained,and the calculated spectroscopic constants of bound states are consistent with previous experimental results. The dipole moments(DMs) of 2 Σ+ and 2Π are determined, and the spin–orbit(SO) matrix elements between each pair of X2Σ+, 22Σ+, 12Π, and 22Π are obtained. The results indicate that the sudden changes of DMs and SO matrix elements arise from the variation of the electronic configurations around the avoided crossing region. Moreover,the Franck–Condon factors(FCFs), the transition dipole moments(TDMs), and radiative lifetimes of low-lying states-the ground state X2Σ+are determined. Finally, the transitional properties of 22Π–X2Σ+and 22Σ+–X2Σ+are studied. Based on our computed spectroscopic information of Cd F, the feasibility and challenge for laser cooling of Cd F molecule are discussed.

Collisional Quantum Interference on Rotational Energy Transfer： Relation Between Integral Interference Angle and Rotational Quantum Number in Na2（A^1∑u^＋,ν=8～b^3∏0u,ν=14）-Na System

Collisional quantum interference （CQI） on rotational energy transfer was observed in Na2（A^1∑u^＋,ν=8～b^3∏0u,ν=14） system in collision with Na [Chem. Phys. Lett. 318 （2000） 107], and the degree of the interference was measured. The integral interference angle was obtaJned through theoretical calculation. We will research the factors that have effect on collisional quantum interference on rotational energy transfer in Na2（A^1∑u^＋,ν=8～b^3∏0u,ν=14）-Na system. Basing on the time-dependent first order Born approximation, and taking into account the anlsotroplc Lennard Jones interaction potentials and ＂straight-line＂ trajectory approximation, we obtain the factors that have effect on CQI in Na2-Na system, and obtain the relation between the integral interference angle and rotational quantum number.     

The ΔNγ electromagnetic transition form factors GM(q) and GE(q)

A parameter-free, nonperturbative calculation of the ΔNγ electromagnetic transition amplitudes GM*(q2), GE*(q2), and the resonant multipole ratio REM(q2)≡E1+3/2(q2)/M1+3/2(q2) is performed in terms of the well-known nucleon isovector Sachs form factor GMV. Our methods are fully relativistic with conservation of the electromagnetic current guaranteed. We find that GM*(q2) decreases more rapidly than the nucleon dipole form factor when −q21 GeV2/c2 and that REM(q2) remains small even for very high four-momentum transfer implying that the perturbative QCD prediction REM(q2)→1 is purely asymptotic and is valid only for extremely high |q2|.

一个新的自由能函数对介电高弹薄膜的多组等双轴预拉伸下力电耦合实验的预测

当介电高弹聚合物薄膜被施以面内等双轴预拉伸后, 受到厚度方向的电压作用时, 薄膜在力场和电场共同作用下产生大变形. 电场采用Maxwell应力分析, 力场采用橡胶弹性模型分析. 拟合这类变形的常用橡胶弹性模型主要有Neo-Hookean, Arruda-Boyce, Gent等模型. 这些模型对实验数据的定量拟合存在不同程度的偏差. 通过对实验数据的分析, 结合数学方法, 提出了一个新的自由能函数模型. 通过该模型对VHB4905介电高弹聚合物薄膜的多组等双轴预拉伸电力耦合实验进行拟合, 并以Neo-Hookean, Gent模型作为对照, 结果与实验数据拟合很好, 比对照模型的偏差明显缩小.     

Non-1/mb power suppressed contributions to inclusive B → Xsll decays

We compute non-perturbative contributions to B → X_sl⁺l⁻ that are not explicitly suppressed by powers of the b-quark mass. They are proportional to and arise from an interference between the free-quark amplitude and high order terms in the matrix element of the four-quark operator s⁻γ^μ(1 − γ₅)cc^−βγ_μ(1 − γ₅)b_β. This correction is found to be small over most of the dalitz plot except near the charm threshold. Unfortunately, the perturbative computation we have performed is invalid near charm threshold and we do not except to see the structure found at lowest order reproduced in the data. We conclude that these non-perturbative contributions do not significantly modify the previous analysis of B → X_sl⁺l⁻.     

One- and Two-Mode Combination Squeezing Operator for Two Harmonic Oscillators with Coordinate-Momentum Coupling

By virtue of the technique of integration within an ordered product of operators, we derive the normal ordering expansion of a one- and two-mode combination squeezing operator for two harmonic oscillators with coordinate- momentum coupling. It turns out that this squeezing operator just diagonalizes the Hamiltonian H=p^21/2m1＋m1ω^21x^21/2＋p^222m2＋m2ω^22x^22/2-λx2p1 so its ground state is a one- and two-mode combination squeezed state. Quantum fluctuation in the ground state is calculated.
