The antiproton-deuteron atoms are studied in models of various realistic, popular nucleon-antinucleon potentials. The small energy shifts and decay widths of the atoms, which stem from the short-ranged strong interactions between the antiproton and deuteron, are evaluated in a well-established, accurate approach based on the Sturmian functions. The investigation reveals that none of the employed potentials, which reproduce the nucleon-antinucleon scattering data quite well, is able to reproduce the experimental data of the energy shifts of the 2p antiproton-deuteron atomic states. The energy shifts of the 2p antiproton-deuteron atomic states are very sensitive to the nucleon-antinucleon strong interactions, hence the investigation of the antiproton-deuteron atoms is expected to provide a good platform for refining the nucleon-antinucleon interaction, especially at zero energy.

In this chapter we review the field of radio-frequency dressed atom trapping. We emphasise the role of adiabatic potentials and give simple, but generic models of electromagnetic fields that currently produce traps for atoms at microkelvin temperatur es and below. The paper aims to be didactic and starts with general descriptions of the essential ingredients of adiabaticity and magnetic resonance. As examples of adiabatic potentials we pay attention to radio-frequency dressing in both the quadrupole trap and the Ioffe-Pritchard trap. We include a description of the effect of different choices of radio-frequency polarisation and orientations or alignment. We describe how the adiabatic potentials, formed from radio-frequency fields, can themselves be probed and manipulated with additional radio-frequency fields including multi-photon-effects. We include a description of time-averaged adiabatic potentials. Practical issues for the construction of radio-frequency adiabatic potentials are addressed including noise, harmonics, and beyond rotating wave approximation effects.
A trapped atom interferometer involving state-selective adiabatic potentials with two microwave frequencies on a chip is proposed. We show that this configuration provides a way to achieve a high degree of symmetry between the two arms of the interfe rometer, which is necessary for coherent splitting and recombination of thermal (i.e. non-condensed) atoms. The resulting interferometer holds promise to achieve high contrast and long coherence time, while avoiding the mean-field interaction issues of interferometers based on trapped Bose-Einstein condenstates.
We present a spectroscopic method for mapping two-dimensional distributions of magnetic field strengths (magnetic scalar potential lines) using CCD recordings of the fluorescence patterns emitted by spin-polarized Cs vapor in a buffer gas exposed to inhomogeneous magnetic fields. The method relies on the position-selective destruction of spin polarization by magnetic resonances induced by multi-component oscillating magnetic fields, such that magnetic potential lines can directly be detected by the CCD camera. We also present a generic algebraic model allowing the calculation of the fluorescence patterns and find excellent agreement with the experimental observations for three distinct inhomogeneous field topologies. The spatial resolution obtained with these proof-of-principle experiments is on the order of 1 mm. A substantial increase of spatial and magnetic field resolution is expected by deploying the method in a magnetically shielded environment.

The nuclear interactions of atomic and low energy antiprotons are studied. Measurements of level shifts and widths in the lightest elements are analyzed and compared with new results obtained in heavy nuclei. Simple geometric properties of antiproton - nucleus interactions are demonstrated. Upon this background one finds some anomalies that indicate strong energy dependence in the subthreshold antiproton - nucleon interactions. The use of of antiproton in studies of the nuclear surface is briefly discussed.
An implementation of the Hartree-Fock (HF) method capable of robust convergence for well-behaved arbitrary central potentials is presented. The Hartree-Fock equations are converted to a generalized eigenvalue problem by employing a B-spline basis in a finite-size box. Convergence of the self-consistency iterations for the occupied electron orbitals is achieved by increasing the magnitude of the electron-electron Coulomb interaction gradually to its true value. For the Coulomb central potential, convergence patterns and energies are presented for a selection of atoms and negative ions, and are benchmarked against existing calculations. The present approach is also tested by calculating the ground states for an electron gas confined by a harmonic potential and also by that of uniformly charged sphere (the jellium model of alkali-metal clusters). For the harmonically confined electron-gas problem, comparisons are made with the Thomas-Fermi method and its accurate asymptotic analytical solution, with close agreement found for the electron energy and density for large electron numbers. We test the accuracy and effective completeness of the excited state manifolds by calculating the static dipole polarizabilities at the HF level and using the Random-Phase Approximation. Using the latter is crucial for the electron-gas and cluster models, where the effect of electron screening is very important. Comparisons are made for with experimental data for sodium clusters of up to $sim $100 atoms.
