Predicting scattering properties of ultracold atoms: Adiabatic

Ultracold atoms are increasingly used for high-precision experiments that can be utilized to extract accurate scattering properties. This results in a stronger need to improve on the accuracy of interatomic potentials, and in particular the usually rather inaccurate inner-range potentials. A boundary condition for this short range can be …

Now, a team around Ramón Ramos at the University of Toronto, Canada, has determined ultracold rubidium atoms' tunnelling time – and it's not instantaneous. This is the first direct measurement of how long such massive particles spend inside a barrier, Ramos says. To do this, the researchers put a half-century-old thought experiment ...
