The intrinsic radiative lifetimes of the $5d^{10}6s$ $^{2}text{S}_{1/2}$ and $5d^{9}6s^{2}$ $^{2}text{D}_{3/2}$ bound excited states in the platinum anion $text{Pt}^{-}$ have been studied at cryogenic temperatures at the Double ElectroStatic Ion Ring Experiment (DESIREE) facility at Stockholm University. The intrinsic lifetime of the higher-lying $5d^{10}6s$ $^{2}text{S}_{1/2}$ state was measurement to be 2.54$pm$0.10 s, while only a lifetime in the range of 50 - 200 ms could be estimated for the $5d^{9}6s^{2}$ $^{2}text{D}_{3/2}$ fine-structure level. The storage lifetime of the $text{Pt}^{-}$ ion beam was measured to be a little over 15 minutes at a ring temperature of 13 K. The present study reports the lifetime of an atomic negative ion in an excited bound state with an electron configuration different from that of the ground state.

The intrinsic lifetime of the upper level in the bound-bound 3d$^9$4s$^2$ $^2$D$_{3/2}$ $rightarrow$ 3d$^9$4s$^2$ $^2$D$_{5/2}$ radiative transition in Ni$^-$ was measured to be 15.1 $pm$ 0.4 s. The experiment was performed at cryogenic temperatures in one of the ion-beam storage rings of the DESIREE (Double ElectroStatic Ion Ring Experiment) facility at Stockholm University. The storage lifetime of the Ni$^-$ ion-beam was measured to be close to five minutes at a ring temperature of 13 K.
Since their first experimental observation, ultralong-range Rydberg molecules consisting of a highly excited Rydberg atom and a ground state atom have attracted the interest in the field of ultracold chemistry. Especially the intriguing properties li ke size, polarizability and type of binding they inherit from the Rydberg atom are of interest. An open question in the field is the reduced lifetime of the molecules compared to the corresponding atomic Rydberg states. In this letter we present an experimental study on the lifetimes of the ^3Sigma (5s-35s) molecule in its vibrational ground state and in an excited state. We show that the lifetimes depends on the density of ground state atoms and that this can be described in the frame of a classical scattering between the molecules and ground state atoms. We also find that the excited molecular state has an even more reduced lifetime compared to the ground state which can be attributed to an inward penetration of the bound atomic pair due to imperfect quantum reflection that takes place in the special shape of the molecular potential.
We study a heavy-heavy-light three-body system confined to one space dimension provided the binding energy of an excited state in the heavy-light subsystems approaches zero. The associated two-body system is characterized by (i) the structure of the weakly-bound excited heavy-light state and (ii) the presence of deeply-bound heavy-light states. The consequences of these aspects for the behavior of the three-body system are analyzed. We find strong indication for universal behavior of both three-body binding energies and wave functions for different weakly-bound excited states in the heavy-light subsystems.
We extend the theory for laser cooling in a near-resonant optical lattice to include multiple excited hyperfine states. Simulations are performed treating the external degrees of freedom of the atom, i.e., position and momentum, classically, while th e internal atomic states are treated quantum mechanically, allowing for arbitrary superpositions. Whereas theoretical treatments including only a single excited hyperfine state predict that the temperature should be a function of lattice depth only, except close to resonance, experiments have shown that the minimum temperature achieved depends also on the detuning from resonance of the lattice light. Our results resolve this discrepancy.

We describe a numerical method that simulates the interaction of the helium atom with sequences of femtosecond and attosecond light pulses. The method, which is based on the close-coupling expansion of the electronic configuration space in a B-spline bipolar spherical harmonic basis, can accurately reproduce the excitation and single ionization of the atom, within the electrostatic approximation. The time dependent Schrodinger equation is integrated with a sequence of second-order split-exponential unitary propagators. The asymptotic channel-, energy- and angularly-resolved photoelectron distributions are computed by projecting the wavepacket at the end of the simulation on the multichannel scattering states of the atom, which are separately computed within the same close-coupling basis. This method is applied to simulate the pump-probe ionization of helium in the vicinity of the $2s/2p$ excitation threshold of the He$^+$ ion. This work confirms the qualitative conclusions of one of our earliest publications [L Argenti and E Lindroth, Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 105}, 53002 (2010)], in which we demonstrated the control of the $2s/2p$ ionization branching-ratio. Here, we take those calculations to convergence and show how correlation brings the periodic modulation of the branching ratios in almost phase opposition. The residual total ionization probability to the $2s+2p$ channels is dominated by the beating between the $sp_{2,3}^+$ and the $sp_{2,4}^+$ doubly excited states, which is consistent with the modulation of the complementary signal in the $1s$ channel, measured in 2010 by Chang and co-workers~[S Gilbertson~emph{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 105}, 263003 (2010)].
