A machine-learning model trained on fewer than 300 molecules has flagged diatomic pairs with record-high electric dipole moments, several of them in combinations that chemists had not seriously ...
Researchers describe using a novel method combining cryogenic technology and direct laser light to cool the nonlinear polyatomic molecule calcium monomethoxide (CaOCH3) to just above absolute zero.
An investigation of how ultracold molecules are broken apart by light reveals surprising, previously unobserved quantum effects. The work opens up avenues of research in quantum optics. See Letter ...
