Dynamic and optical control of cold molecules
The theoretical work presented in this thesis is focused on the formation of ultracold bialcaline molecules and on the control of their external and internal degrees... -
Measurement of the van der Waals interaction between two Rydberg atoms
Neutral atoms are promising candidates for the realization of entangled states involving up to a few tens of particles. To generate such states, one approach consists... -
Light scattering in dense mesoscopic cold atomic clouds
When several atoms are placed close to each other, the resonant dipole-dipole interactionbetween atoms modifies the atomic properties and atoms behave collectively....
