Different atoms and ions possess characteristic energy levels. Like a fingerprint, they are unique for each species. Among ...

Technical University of Braunschweig, and the University of Delaware achieved new insight into the inner structure of the ...

Exploiting the hyperfine structure in repulsive light-assisted collisions (LAC) on a 87-Rubidium atom pair in an optical tweezer. When atoms collide, their exact structure—for example, the number of ...

Relativistic atomic structure and spectroscopy address the complex interplay of quantum mechanics and Einstein’s theory of relativity to describe the behaviour of electrons in atoms, particularly ...
