Journal Article
Franzen, T., Guttridge, A., Wilson, K. E., Segal, J., Frye, M. D., Hutson, J. M., & Cornish, S. L. (2022). Observation of magnetic Feshbach resonances between Cs and 173Yb. Physical Review Research, 4(4), Article 043072. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevresearch.4.043072

We report the observation of magnetic Feshbach resonances between 173 Yb and 133 Cs . In a mixture of Cs atoms prepared in the ( f = 3 , m f = 3 ) state and unpolarized fermionic 173 Yb , we observe resonant atom loss due to two sets of magnetic Fesh...

Molecule-molecule and atom-molecule collisions with ultracold RbCs molecules (2021)
Journal Article
Gregory, P. D., Blackmore, J. A., Frye, M. D., Fernley, L. M., Bromley, S. L., Hutson, J. M., & Cornish, S. L. (2021). Molecule-molecule and atom-molecule collisions with ultracold RbCs molecules. New Journal of Physics, 23, Article 125004. https://doi.org/10.1088/1367-2630/ac3c63

Understanding ultracold collisions involving molecules is of fundamental importance for current experiments, where inelastic collisions typically limit the lifetime of molecular ensembles in optical traps. Here we present a broad study of optically t... Read More about Molecule-molecule and atom-molecule collisions with ultracold RbCs molecules.

Prospects of Forming High-Spin Polar Molecules from Ultracold Atoms (2020)
Journal Article
Frye, M. D., Cornish, S. L., & Hutson, J. M. (2020). Prospects of Forming High-Spin Polar Molecules from Ultracold Atoms. Physical Review X, 10(4), Article 041005. https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevx.10.041005

We investigate Feshbach resonances in collisions of high-spin atoms such as Er and Dy with closed-shell atoms such as Sr and Yb, using coupled-channel scattering and bound-state calculations. We consider both low-anisotropy and high-anisotropy limits... Read More about Prospects of Forming High-Spin Polar Molecules from Ultracold Atoms.

Sticky collisions of ultracold RbCs molecules (2019)
Journal Article
Gregory, P. D., Frye, M. D., Blackmore, J. A., Bridge, E. M., Sawant, R., Hutson, J. M., & Cornish, S. L. (2019). Sticky collisions of ultracold RbCs molecules. Nature Communications, 10(1), Article 3104. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-11033-y

Understanding and controlling collisions is crucial to the burgeoning field of ultracold molecules. All experiments so far have observed fast loss of molecules from the trap. However, the dominant mechanism for collisional loss is not well understood... Read More about Sticky collisions of ultracold RbCs molecules.
