We present a theoretical study of the Zeeman relaxation of the magnetically trappable lowest field seeking state of MnH(^7 Sigma) in collisions with 3He. We analyze the collisional Zeeman transition mechanism as a function of the final diatomic state and its variation as a function of an applied magnetic field. We show that as a result of this mechanism the levels with Delta Mj>2 give negligible contributions to the Zeemam relaxation cross section. We also compare our results to the experimental cross sections obtained from the buffer gas cooling and magnetic trapping of this molecule and investigate the dependence of the Zeeman relaxation cross section on the accuracy of the three body interaction at ultralow energies.

We have measured the ratio of the diffusion cross-section to the angular momentum reorientation cross-section in the colliding Fe-3He and Ni-3He systems. Nickel (Ni) and iron (Fe) atoms are introduced via laser ablation into a cryogenically cooled ex perimental cell containing cold (< 1 K) 3He buffer gas. Elastic collisions rapidly cool the translational temperature of the ablated atoms to the helium temperature. The cross-section ratio is extracted by measuring the decays of the atomic Zeeman sublevels. For our experimental conditions, thermal energy is comparable to the Zeeman splitting. As a result, thermal excitations between Zeeman sublevels significantly impact the observed decay. To determine the cross-section ratio accurately, we introduce a model of Zeeman state dynamics that includes thermal excitations. We find the cross-section ratio for Ni-3He = 5 x 10^3 and Fe-3He <= 3 x 10^3 at 0.75 K in a 0.8 T magnetic field. These measurements are interpreted in the context of submerged shell suppression of spin relaxation as studied previously in transition metals and rare earth atoms.
Imidogen (NH) radicals are magnetically trapped and their Zeeman relaxation and energy transport collision cross sections with helium are measured. Continuous buffer-gas loading of the trap is direct from a room-temperature molecular beam. The Zeeman relaxation (inelastic) cross section of magnetically trapped electronic, vibrational and rotational ground state imidogen in collisions with He-3 is measured to be 3.8 +/- 1.1 E-19 cm^2 at 710 mK. The NH-He energy transport cross section is also measured, indicating a ratio of diffusive to inelastic cross sections of gamma = 7 E4 in agreement with the recent theory of Krems et al. (PRA 68 051401(R) (2003))
We measure and theoretically determine the effect of molecular rotational splitting on Zeeman relaxation rates in collisions of cold Triplet-Sigma molecules with helium atoms in a magnetic field. All four stable isotopomers of the imidogen (NH) molec ule are magnetically trapped and studied in collisions with 3He and 4He. The 4He data support the predicted inverse square dependence of the collision induced Zeeman relaxation rate coefficient on the molecular rotational constant B. The measured 3He rate coefficients are much larger than 4He and depend less strongly on B, and the theoretical analysis indicates they are strongly affected by a shape resonance. The results demonstrate the influence of molecular structure on collisional energy transfer at low temperatures.

Absorbing UV radiation, ozone protects life on Earth and plays a fundamental role in Earths temperature balance. The formation of ozone occurs through the ternary recombination reaction: O$_2$+O+M $rightarrow$ O$_3$+M, where M can be N$_2$, O$_2$ or Ar. Here, we developed a theoretical approach capable of modeling the formation of ozone molecules in ternary collisions, and applied it to the reaction with M=Ar because of extensive experimental data available. The rate coefficients for the direct formation of O$_3$ in ternary collisions O+O$_2$+Ar were computed for the first time as a function of collision energy, and thermally-averaged coefficients were derived for temperatures 5-900~K leading to a good agreement with available experimental data for temperatures 100-900~K. The present study shows that the formation of ozone in ternary collisions O+O$_2$+Ar at temperatures below 200~K proceeds through a formation of a temporary complex ArO$_2$, while at temperatures above 1000~K, the reaction proceeds mainly through a formation of long-lived vibrational resonances of O$_3^*$. At intermediate temperatures 200~K-1000~K, the process cannot be viewed as a two-step mechanism. In addition, it is found that the majority of O$_3$ molecules formed initially are weakly bound.
We study the dressed states of 3He atoms and experimentally observe the Mollow triplet (MT) induced with an ultra-low-frequency (ULF) oscillating magnetic field as low as 4 Hz. The ULF MT signatures from the ground states of 3He atoms are transferred to the metastable states by metastability-exchange collisions (MECs) and measured optically, which demonstrates 2 s coherence time in the dressed ground states. The result shows the possibility of ULF magnetic field amplitude measurement and a new scheme for optical frequency modulation.
