A Cavity-Coupled Rydberg Atom Array Platform for Quantum Computing
Neutral atom systems have long been the test bed for complex quantum physics. Recently, much of the focus in quantum research has shifted from fundamental science to applications in quantum computation. Although several different hardware platforms have made strides in their capabilities in this …

Low energy electron attachment to buckminsterfullerene in Rydberg atom-buckminsterfullerene collisions
… has been observed in collisions between K(np) Rydberg atoms with principal quantum numbers $\rm35\leq n\leq125,$ which corresponds to electrons with mean energies in the range $\sim$2 meV to $\sim$170 $\mu$eV, and $C\sb{60}$ molecules. This results from Rydberg electron transfer and has …

A Cavity-Coupled Rydberg Atom Array for Quantum Science and Quantum Computing
Neutral atom arrays have rapidly emerged as a leading platform for quantum computing, boasting scalable, configurable arrays of single atoms trapped in optical tweezers, fast, high-fidelity entangling gates through Rydberg interactions, and programmable, parallelized control of qubit operations. …

Rydberg atom networks for quantum technologies [Reti atomiche Rydberg per le tecnologie quantistiche]
Gli atomi di Rydberg sono destinati a diventare validi candidati per il progresso delle tecnologie quantistiche. Il loro principale vantaggio risiede nelle forti interazioni dipolari tra più atomi, che portano a fenomeni come la “blockade" e la facilitazione di Rydberg. Oltre a queste notevoli …

Modelling and Exploiting the Hyperfine Structure of Alkali Atoms for Generation of Nonclassical Light and Rydberg-Atom-Based Field Sensing
Alkali atoms are a workhorse in quantum optics, owing to the relative simplicity of their elec- tronic structure, which affords remarkable and reliable control over their behaviour. In particular, the ability to probe and manipulate alkali atoms with electromagnetic fields provides an important …

ELECTRIC FIELD IONIZATION OF SODIUM RYDBERG ATOMS
The outer electron of a Rydberg atom is so weakly bound to the atomic core that a relatively small electric field may cause the electron to be stripped from the atom. The field strength at which this ionization happens is strongly dependent on the state of the Rydberg atom. Pulsed electric field …

Ultracold Rydberg Atoms in Structured and Disordered Environments
The properties of a Rydberg atom immersed in an ultracold environment were investigated. Two scenarios were considered, one of which involves the neighbouring ground-state atoms arranged in a spatially structured configuration, while the other involves them distributed randomly in space. To …

A STUDY OF LOW ENERGY ELECTRON-MOLECULE AND ION-MOLECULE COLLISIONS USING RYDBERG ATOMS (IONIZATION, ASSOCIATION, ATTACHMENT, OXYGEN, WATER)
Low energy collisions between Rydberg atoms and neutral molecules have been investigated over a wide range of principal quantum numbers n, and for several different neutral targets. The results have been used to validate the free-electron, independent particle model of Rydberg atom collisions. …

Ultralong range Rydberg molecules : investigation of a novel binding
… shown whose binding is based solely on electron-atom scattering. These molecules are composed of a Rydberg atom and a ground state atom - here Rb(ns) and Rb(5s) - where the binding arises from scattering of the Rydberg electron from the ground state atom. The ground state atom is bound to the …

Quantum simulations in interacting Rydberg synthetic dimensions
… realization of synthetic dimensions using Rydberg atom arrays as a novel and flexible platform for quantum simulation. By coherently coupling a discrete set of Rydberg states via engineered microwave (MW) fields, we construct synthetic lattices in which internal atomic states serve as …
