Branch-point structure and energy level calculations of diamagnetic hydrogen using dimensional perturbation theory.
(2000)
This dissertation describes the results of research that covers two distinct areas relevant to the field of physics: atomic theory and applied numerical analysis. In the first phase of this research the avoided crossings ...
Dimensional perturbation theory of the two-electron atom for states with arbitrary angular momentum.
(2000)
Dimensional Perturbation Theory (DPT) has been applied to many systems including the hydrogen atom, hydrogen atom in a magnetic field, H+2 molecule and the helium atom. Only S-wave states, and interdimensionally degenerate ...
Laser cooling and trapping using Laguerre-Gaussian laser beams.
(2003)
Laser cooling and trapping has led to a revolution in Atomic and Molecular physics. Optical traps created with blue-detuned laser beams are desired for numerous studies. One method of creating such a trap is with ...
Cold nitric oxide molecules from a Stark guide.
(2005)
One possible technique is the use of a modified straight Stark guide to filter the slow moving molecules from a thermal source. Here I present such a technique and the design of the necessary apparatus. Furthermore, I ...
Many-body dimensional perturbation theory for quantum confined systems with a focus on atomic gas Bose-Einstein condensates.
(2003)
Feshbach resonances notwithstanding, most experimentally realized atomic-vapor condensates are dilute and are best described by the mean-field Gross-Pitaevskii equation. For this reason, we use dimensional scaling methods ...
