The yield of neutral excited atoms and low-energy photoelectrons generated by the electron dynamics in the combined Coulomb and laser field after tunneling is investigated. We present results of Monte-Carlo simulations built on the two-step semiclassical model, as well as analytic estimates and scaling relations for the population trapping into the Rydberg states. It is shown that mainly those electrons are captured into bound states of the neutral atom that due to their initial conditions (i) have moderate drift momentum imparted by the laser field and (ii) avoid strong interaction (hard collision) with the ion. In addition, it is demonstrated that the channel of capture, when accounted for in semiclassical calculations, has a pronounced effect on the momentum distribution of electrons with small positive energy. For the parameters that we investigated its presence leads to a dip at zero momentum in the longitudinal momentum distribution of the ionized electrons.

We propose a novel type of Rydberg dimer, consisting of a Rydberg-state atom bound to a distant positive ion. The molecule is formed through long-range electric-multipole interaction between the Rydberg atom and the point-like ion. We present potenti al energy curves (PECs) that are asymptotically connected with Rydberg $nP$- or $nD$-states of rubidium or cesium. The PECs exhibit deep, long-range wells which support many vibrational states of Rydberg-atom-ion molecules (RAIMs). We consider photo-association of RAIMs in both the weak and the strong optical-coupling regimes between initial and Rydberg states of the neutral atom. Experimental considerations for the realization of RAIMs are discussed.
We predict the existence of a universal class of ultralong-range Rydberg molecular states whose vibrational spectra form trimmed Rydberg series. A dressed ion-pair model captures the physical origin of these exotic molecules, accurately predicts thei r properties, and reveals features of ultralong-range Rydberg molecules and heavy Rydberg states with a surprisingly small Rydberg constant. The latter is determined by the small effective charge of the dressed anion, which outweighs the contribution of the molecules large reduced mass. This renders these molecules the only known few-body systems to have a Rydberg constant smaller than $R_infty/2$.
A detailed theoretical framework for highly excited Rydberg molecules is developed based on the generalized local frame transformation. Our approach avoids the use of pseudopotentials and yields analytical expressions for the body-frame reaction matr ix. The latter is used to obtain the molecular potential energy curves, but equally it can be employed for photodissociation, photoionization, or other processes. To illustrate the reliability and accuracy of our treatment we consider the Rb$^*-$Rb Rydberg molecule and compare our treatment with state-of-the-art alternative approaches. As a second application, the present formalism is used to re-analyze the vibrational spectra of Sr$^*-$Sr molecules, providing additional physical insight into their properties and a comparison of our results with corresponding measurements.

We demonstrate rather interesting manifestations of co-existence of resonance features in characteristics of the photoionization of 3d-electrons in Xe@C60. It is shown that the reflection of photoelectrons produced by the 3d Xe photoionization affect s greatly partial photoionization cross-sections of and levels and respective angular anisotropy parameters, both dipole and non-dipole adding to all of them additional maximums and minimums. The calculations are performed treating the 3/2 and 5/2 electrons as electrons of different kinds with their spins up and down. The effect of C60 shell is accounted for in the frame of the orange skin potential model.

In this study, we present the ro-vibrationally resolved gas-phase spectrum of the diatomic molecule TiO around 1000,cm$^{-1}$. Molecules were produced in a laser ablation source by vaporizing a pure titanium sample in the atmosphere of gaseous nitrou s oxide. Adiabatically expanded gas, containing TiO, formed a supersonic jet and was probed perpendicularly to its propagation by infrared radiation from quantum cascade lasers. Fundamental bands of $^{46-50}$TiO and vibrational hotbands of $^{48}$TiO are identified and analyzed. In a mass-independent fitting procedure combining the new infrared data with pure rotational and electronic transitions from the literature, a Dunham-like parameterization is obtained. From the present data set, the multi-isotopic analysis allows to determine the spin-rotation coupling constant $gamma$ and the Born-Oppenheimer correction coefficient $Delta_{rm U_{10}}^{mathrm{Ti}}$ for the first time. The parameter set enables to calculate the Born-Oppenheimer correction coefficients $Delta_{rm U_{02}}^{mathrm{Ti}}$ and $Delta_{rm U_{02}}^{mathrm{O}}$. In addition, the vibrational transition moments for the observed vibrational transitions are reported.
