Ultracold Ion-Atom Scattering

Speaker: Niranjan Myneni (Raman Research Institute)

Abstract

Physical phenomena relevant to ultracold ion-atom scattering and all other significant charge transport processes that can be realized at low temperatures have been explored. The rich physics of systems with identity exchange where the individual components can be trapped probed and detected, and the nature of interactions be tuned by parameters has been explained. The different identified processes and phenomenon have been described and attempts have been made to observe them with a carefully designed experimental setup.
