Strong autoresonance excitation of Rydberg atoms: The Rydberg accelerator
Physical Review A, 1990A classical mechanism is proposed for the many-photon ionization of Rydberg atoms in a quasimonochromatic oscillating electric field with an amplitude smaller than the stochasticity threshold. The mechanism is based on the dynamic autoresonance between the slowly varying frequency of the oscillating field and the Keplerian frequency (or one of its ...

Rydberg-atom-Rydberg-atom ionisation cross sections
Journal of Physics B: Atomic and Molecular Physics, 1979A four-body classical-trajectory Monte Carlo method has been applied to Rydberg-atom-Rydberg-atom scattering problems. Numerical calculations were conducted over the velocity range ve/3 to 3v2 where v2(au)=1/n and n is the principal quantum number of the Rydberg atom.

Journal of Modern Optics, 1987
Abstract It is shown that some 17 Rydberg Na atoms initially placed into a coherent atomic state and super-radiating into a low-Q microwave cavity at temperatures T ≲ 0·4 K will show modest squeezing in the fluorescence field, the squeezing arising from terms oscillating at twice the cavity frequency.

Abstract We employ ensembles of cold Rydberg-atom gases produced via photo-excitation of laser-cooled atom clouds in order to investigate collision-induced dynamics, excitation blockades, and Rydberg-atom trapping. After a general description of typical experimental methods used in this research, we review state-mixing and ionizing collision ...

Rydberg Atoms in Curved Space-Time
Physical Review Letters, 1993The possible use of loosely bound Rydberg atoms for remote gravimetric measurements is explored. The first-order corrections to the nonrelativistic nS and nP states for ng2 are obtained for the first time. A procedure to evaluate corrections of any order is outlined and applied to the 1S state in a spherical symmetry.

Recent developments in experimental technique allow study of the ionization and excitation of Rydberg atoms by pulsed unidirectional electric fields, termed half-cycle pulses (HCPs), with duration T p ≪ T n , where T n is the classical electron orbital period.

As discussed in the introduction, the strong dipole–dipole interactions of the Rydberg states make them ideal for studying quantum many body physics, and applications in quantum information [1]. One of the main advantages of Rydberg atoms over other dipolar systems, such as polar molecules [2, 3], is the ability to control the strength, sign and ...

Publisher Summary This chapter is devoted to the production and detection of Rydberg states; every experiment starts and ends with these processes. The main results of spectroscopic studies are analyzed and a strong emphasis is placed on the effects of external fields as this is probably the domain where the most interesting and sometimes surprising ...
