Surface Chemical Trapping of Optical Cycling Centers [PDF]
Quantum information processors based on trapped atoms utilize laser-induced optical cycling transitions for state preparation and measurement. These transitions consist of an electronic excitation from the ground to an excited state and a decay back to the initial ground state, associated with a photon emission.

Spin-Mechanics with Nitrogen-Vacancy Centers and Trapped Particles [PDF]
Controlling the motion of macroscopic oscillators in the quantum regime has been the subject of intense research in recent decades. In this direction, opto-mechanical systems, where the motion of micro-objects is strongly coupled with laser light radiation pressure, have had tremendous success.

Is Child-Centered Tobacco Prevention a Trap?
“There is no question that demands more public attention . . . than the prevailing methods of cigarette manufacturers to foster and stimulate smoking among children,” an angry New Yorker said in 1888. Tobacco manufacturers seduced the young with promotional prizes like pocket knives and lithograph albums, he said. “At the office of a leading factory in

Trapped-hole centers in MgO single crystals [PDF]
The properties of the majority trapped-hole centers in MgO, such as g-factors, positions of absorption and luminescence bands, and temperatures of thermal destruction, have been analyzed with the emphasis on the observed regular trends and interrelations between the properties of these centers.
