Ultracold molecules formed from association of a single Rydberg atom with surrounding
atoms or molecules and those from double Rydberg excitations are discussed in this review …

We review ultralong-range Rydberg molecules (ULRMs), which are bound states between a
Rydberg atom and one or more ground-state atoms with bond lengths on the order of …

The coupling of electrons to matter lies at the heart of our understanding of material
properties such as electrical conductivity. Electron–phonon coupling can lead to the …

The strong interaction between Rydberg atoms can be used to control the strength and
character of the interatomic interaction in ultracold gases by weakly dressing the atoms with …

In Rydberg atoms, at least one electron is excited to a state with a high principal quantum
number. In an ultracold environment, this low-energy electron can scatter off a ground state …

Permanent electric dipole moments in molecules require a breaking of parity symmetry.
Conventionally, this symmetry breaking relies on the presence of heteronuclear constituents …

We report the creation of ultra-long-range Sr 2 molecules comprising one ground-state 5 s 2
1 S 0 atom and one atom in a 5 sns 3 S 1 Rydberg state for n ranging from 29 to 36 …

We observe “trilobitelike” states of ultracold Rb 2 85 molecules, in which a ground-state
atom is bound by the electronic wave function of its Rydberg-atom partner. We populate …

We study angular-momentum couplings in Rb 87 2 Rydberg molecules formed between a
Rydberg and 5 S 1/2 ground-state atom. We use a Fermi model that includes S-wave and P …

Within a dense environment (ρ≈ 10 14 atoms/cm 3) at ultracold temperatures (T< 1 μ K), a
single atom excited to a Rydberg state acts as a reaction center for surrounding neutral …
