A26.00001: Isolation of Molecules in Helium Nanodroplets: Spectroscopy and Dynamics at Ultra-cold Temperatures - local link
Invited Speaker: Frank Stienkemeier

The isolation of atoms, molecules, clusters or nano-sized complexes in helium nanodroplets allows detailed spectroscopic studies at temperatures in the millikelvin range. Moreover, femtosecond real-time spectroscopy has been introduced to study dynamical processes in the ultracold helium environment. On the one hand, wave packet propagation opens a window to dynamical processes, allowing even a view to superfluid properties at the nanoscale. This is exemplified at decoherence effects in the wave packet propargation of small molecules attached to the droplets. On the other hand, high-resolution mass spectra using both femtosecond photoionisation (PI) as well as electron impact ionization enable us to characterize reactive processes at temperatures in the millikelvin range. As an example, alkali cluster -- water complexes are formed in helium droplets. By recording multi-photon PI spectra we can distinguish between reactive processes of the neutral clusters and ionic reactions occurring after ionisation of the alkali cluster component. These studies pave the way to time-resolved reaction dynamics at very low temperatures.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00002: Nonequilibrium magnesium complexes formed in helium nanodroplets
Josef Tiggesb\"aumker , Andreas Przystawik , Sebastian G\"ode , Karl-Heinz Meiwes-Broer

Doping helium droplets with alkaline earth atoms is an interesting tool to investigate the interaction with the superfluid helium. Magnesium is a corner case regarding the degree of solvation in helium [1,2] which may enable the detection of quantized vortices in helium droplets. In this contribution we add another facet to the discussion. The absorption of helium droplets doped with magnesium atoms is measured with resonant two-photon ionization at different combinations of droplet size and the number of doped Mg atoms. This enables the unambiguous identification of the absorption of an isolated atom inside the droplet centered around 279\,nm. When increasing the Mg content of the droplet we find evidence for the formation of metastable, weakly bound Mg complexes. After excitation of such a complex it collapses to a Mg cluster on a timescale of 20\,ps. \newline [1] J. Reho \emph{et al}., J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 112}, 8409 (2000) \newline [2] Y. Ren and V.V.

A26.00003: Superfluid $^4$He density functional theory in 2-D cylindrical coordinates
Jussi Eloranta , Sean French , Steven Fiedler

Bosonic density functional theory describing superfluid $^4$He is formulated in 2-D cylindrical coordinates and a numerical implementation of the model using a regular spatial grid basis is presented. The 2-D formulation has many important applications as the 1-D treatment cannot, for example, describe translational motion of atoms and molecules solvated in the liquid and the 3-D theory is usually computationally too expensive, especially when describing dynamics in bulk superfluid $^4$He. The theory is implemented in both real and imaginary time forms for allowing solution of both time-dependent and time-independent problems. Two test cases for the developed method are presented and the results are compared against the previously published results. Finally, the method is applied to describe solvation of single wall carbon nanotubes in superfluid $^4$He at 0 K and the implications of the results to dynamic liquid response are discussed.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00004: Photo-induced isomerization and chemical reaction dynamics in superfluid helium droplets
Jeremy Merritt , Gary Douberly , Roger Miller

Near threshold photo-induced isomerization and photo-induced chemical reactions have long been sough after as sensitive probes of the underlying potential energy surface. One of the most important questions asked is how the initially bright quantum state couples to the reaction coordinate, and thus relates to energy transfer in general. Helium droplets have now allowed us to stabilize entrance channel clusters behind very small reaction barriers such that vibrational excitation may result in reaction. Through two examples, namely the isomerization of the 2 binary complexes of HF-HCN {\{}Douberly et al. PCCP 2005, 7,463{\}}, and the induced reaction of the gallium-HCN complex {\{}Merritt et al. JPCA 2007, DOI:10.1021/jp074981e{\}} we will show how the branching ratios for reaction and predissociation can determined and the influence of the superfluid He solvent.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00005: Rydberg States of Na-doped Helium Nanodroplets
Marcel Drabbels

The dynamics of excited states of Na atoms deposited on the surface of helium nanodroplets has been investigated with velocity map ion imaging, photoelectron spectroscopy and time-of-flight mass-spectroscopy. For the first time, the excitation spectra of Na-doped helium nanodroplets corresponding to Rydberg states of Na atoms have been measured from the lowest excited 3p state up to the ionization threshold. All lines in the excitation spectra are shifted and broadened with respect to the corresponding atomic lines. In addition to bare Na* atoms also Na*He$_{N}$ ($N$ = 1-6) exciplexes are detected upon excitation. Photoelectron spectroscopy reveals the desorption of Na* not only in the initially excited states but also in lower lying states, indicating that relaxation plays an important role. The recorded velocity distributions show interesting characteristics: for the lowest states the mean kinetic energy of Na* increases linearly with excitation energy. The velocity distributions of Na*He$_{N}$ exciplexes do not manifest such remarkable properties. The observations can be largely explained by assuming that the interaction of Na* with the helium nanodroplet can be described by the sum of Na*-He pair potentials.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00006: Photoelectron imaging of doped helium nanodroplets
Daniel Neumark

Photoelectron images of helium nanodroplets doped with Kr and Ne atoms are reported. The images and resulting photoelectron spectra were obtained using tunable synchrotron radiation to ionize the droplets. Droplets were excited at 21.6 eV, corresponding to a strong droplet electronic excitation. The rare gas dopant is then ionized via a Penning excitation transfer process. The electron kinetic energy distributions reflect complex ionization and electron escape dynamics.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00007: High Resolution Fluorescence Excitation and Dispersed Emission Spectra of Organic Molecules in Superfluid Helium Nanodroplets
Alkwin Slenczka , Ricarda Riechers , Dominik Pentlehner , Alexander Vdovin

Superfluid helium droplets serve as a very gentle cryogenic matrix for molecular spectroscopy. The low temperature and high thermal conductivity of superfluid helium droplets are of great advantage for the investigation of dispersed emission spectra of molecules. As a complement to the fluorescence excitation spectrum the emission spectra provide important details on dynamic processes of intramolecular as well as intermolecular nature. This will be demonstrated for various examples such as intramolecular proton tunnelling, isomeric van der Waals complexes, tautomerization and microsolvation.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00008: Coherent boson dynamics in strongly localized potentials - helium excitations at planar aromatic molecules and trapped cold atoms
Invited Speaker: K. Birgitta Whaley

Planar aromatic molecules provide strongly localizing potentials for helium that considerably modify the local superfluid properties of a solvating helium environment. I shall describe some of the effects of these interactions on the solvation structure and spectroscopy of tetracene and phthalocyanine in helium droplets, comparing results of zero and finite temperature quantum Monte Carlo simulations with experimental data. The helium atoms closest to the molecule are seen to show similarities to trapped cold atoms in multi-well potentials. Studies of cold bosons with attractive and repulsive interactions in double well potentials will also be presented, showing formation of squeezed and quantum superposition states of cold atoms.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00009: Fragmentation dynamics inside helium nanodroplets: new theoretical results
Nadine Halberstadt , David Bonhommeau , Marius Lewerenz

We present a theoretical study on the effect of a helium nanodroplet environment on the fragmentation dynamics of embedded rare gas cluster ions. The helium atoms are treated explicitly, with zero-point effects taken into account through an effective helium-helium interaction potential. All the nonadiabatic effects between electronic states of the ionized rare gas cluster are taken into account. Our results reveal new mechanisms for the cooling by helium, and show that the dopant can be ejected from the helium droplet. These results will be presented and discussed.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00010: Suppressing the fragmentation of fragile molecules in helium nanodroplets by co-embedding with water: Possible role of the electric dipole moment
Yanfei Ren , Vitaly Kresin

When fragile molecules are embedded in liquid helium nanodroplets, electron-impact ionization usually leads to fragmentation which is as extensive as for isolated gas-phase molecules. This occurs because of the energy release accompanying charge transfer from the impurity to the He$^{+}$ hole created by electron bombardment. However, in experiments with glycine, polyglycine peptide chains, and alkane hydrocarbon chains we found that if a few molecules of water are co-embedded with these molecules, the fragmentation of the latter is drastically reduced or completely eliminated. On the other hand, the fragmentation of alkanethiols remains unaffected. On the basis of these observations, it is proposed that the fragmentation ``buffering'' effect may correlate with the magnitude of the impurity's electric dipole moment, which steers the migration of the ionizing He$^{+ }$hole through the droplet.    [Preview Abstract]

A26.00011: Path integral investigation of the electronic spectra of He-tetracene clusters
Heather D. Whitley , K. Birgitta Whaley

Planar aromatic molecules (PAMs) are nanoscale precursors to bulk graphite. Their electronic spectra have been extensively studied in $^{4}$He nanodroplets and show a number of unusual spectroscopic features. We have conducted many-body quantum simulations of tetracene in He nanodroplets to probe the 1.1 cm$^{-1}$ spectral splitting of the electronic origin seen for this PAM. We calculate spectral shifts and He density profiles via path integral quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The spectral splitting is examined using a path integral correlation function approach to determine the lowest-lying vibrational excitation frequencies for small He$_{N}$-tetracene clusters. Simulations in the S$_{1}$ state of tetracene utilize a semi-empirical perturbative interaction potential for a He atom with a PAM. Results for the splitting of the electronic origin and the spectral shifts are in good agreement with experiment. Prepared by LLNL under Contract DE-AC52-07NA27344.    [Preview Abstract]

B26.00001: Molecular collision studies with Stark-decelerated beams
Invited Speaker: Gerard Meijer

Molecular scattering behaviour has generally proven difficult to study at low collision energies. We formed a molecular beam of OH radicals with a narrow velocity distribution and a tunable velocity by passing the beam through a Stark decelerator [1]. The transition probabilities for inelastic scattering of the OH radicals with Xe atoms were measured as a function of the collision energy in the range of 50 to 400 wavenumbers. The behaviour of the cross-sections for inelastic scattering near the energetic thresholds was accurately measured, and excellent agreement was obtained with cross-sections derived from coupled- channel calculations on ab initio computed potential energy surfaces [2]. For collision studies at lower energies, the decelerated beams of molecules can be loaded into a variety of traps. In these traps, electric fields are used to keep the molecules confined in a region of space where they can be studied in complete isolation from the (hot) environment. Typically, 10$^5$ state- selected molecules can be trapped for times up to several seconds at a density of 10$^7$ mol/cm$^3$ and at a temperature of several tens of mK [3]. The long interaction time afforded by the trap has been exploited to measure the infrared radiative lifetime of vibrationally excited OH radicals, for instance, as well as to study the far-infrared optical pumping of these polar molecules due to blackbody radiation [4]. As an alternative to these traps, we have demonstrated an electrostatic storage ring for neutral molecules. In its simplest form, a storage ring is a trap in which the molecules - rather than having a minimum potential energy at a single location in space - have a minimum potential energy on a circle. To fully exploit the possibilities offered by a ring structure, it is imperative that the molecules remain in a bunch as they revolve around the ring. This ensures a high density of stored molecules, moreover, this makes it possible to inject multiple - either co-linear or counter propagating - packets into the ring without affecting the packet(s) already stored. We have recently demonstrated a prototype molecular synchrotron, which will be used as a low-energy collider for neutral molecules in the future [5].\newline [1] H.L. Bethlem, G. Berden, and G.

B26.00002: Magnetoelectrostatic trapping of neutral OH molecules
Brian Sawyer , Benjamin Stuhl , Benjamin Lev , Mark Yeo , Dajun Wang , Jun Ye

Advances in cold molecule production promise to profoundly impact research on precision measurement, quantum information, and controlled chemistry. To this end, we employ a Stark decelerator to remove 99.5{\%} of the center-of-mass kinetic energy of a supersonic beam of ground-state OH molecules. We subsequently trap a 70 mK sample of the decelerated molecules at a density of $>$10$^{5}$ cm$^{-3}$ within a magnetic quadrupole whose center lies $\sim $1cm from the decelerator exit. Our magnetoelectrostatic trap (MET) design allows for the addition of an electric field of variable magnitude to the trapped sample to facilitate polar-molecule collision studies. We report progress toward observation of cold collisions between samples of polar molecules.    [Preview Abstract]

B26.00003: Photodissociation of SO$_2$ as a way to cold atoms and molecules
Lisdat Christian , Oleg Bucicov , Marcin Nowak , Sebastian Jung , Eberhard Tiemann

We discuss the possibility to use the photodissociation of cold SO$_2$ molecules to produce internally and translationally cold photofragments SO and O. It is expected from our measurements of the molecular Stark effect~[1] that the dissociation pathways and excess energies of the fragments are tunable by electric fields~[2]. Cold SO$_2$ molecules are produced by Stark deceleration. We have realized a Stark decelerator that is able to slow down packages SO$_2$ in weak-field seeking levels to a few 10~m/s center of mass velocity. A Stark decelerator with 326~stages is required for this purpose, since the ratio of Stark shift to initial kinetic energy is small for SO$_2$. The photofragments SO and O have triplet ground states, while the ground state of SO$_2$ is diamagnetic. In combination with the photodissociation at the threshold we want to employ this constellation to accumulate fragments in a magnetic trap by dissociating SO$_2$ as it is stopped by electric fields in the center of the trap. \newline [1] J.

B26.00004: Alternating gradient focusing and deceleration of large molecules
Kirstin Wohlfart , Fabian Gr\"atz , Frank Filsinger , Gerard Meijer , Jochen K\"upper

During the last decade, fascinating progress has been made in the spectroscopy of the ``molecular building blocks of life''. Meanwhile, our group has been developing methods to decelerate neutral, polar molecules using time varying inhomogeneous electric fields. Extending these techniques to bio-molecules would allow, for instance, to increase observation times for precision spectroscopy or to separate different conformers. However, for such large molecules all states are practically high-field seeking. Therefore, alternating gradient focusing has to be applied. Here, we demonstrate the focusing and deceleration of benzonitrile (C$_7$H$_5$N) from a molecular beam. Benzonitrile is prototypical for large asymmetric top molecules that exhibits rich rotational structure and a high density of states. It is decelerated in its absolute ground state from 320~m/s to 289~m/s, and similar velocity changes are obtained for excited rotational states. We are setting up a longer alternating gradient decelerator, which will enable us to decelerate benzonitrile or larger molecules to much lower velocities and to thereby completely separate the decelerated packet from the rest of the beam pulse.    [Preview Abstract]

Here we present new results on the trapping and collisional properties of RbCs in levels of high vibrational excitation.    [Preview Abstract]

B26.00006: Multistage Zeeman deceleration of hydrogen

With the goals of: (i) performing ultra-high resolution spectroscopy with long interaction times between a cloud of cold atoms or molecules and a narrow bandwidth radiation field, and (ii) studying cold reactive collisions in which the kinetic energies and quantum states of the colliding particles may be controlled to a high degree, a multi-stage Zeeman decelerator for neutral radicals has recently been developed in our laboratory. This instrument relies on the same concept of phase stability employed in charged particle accelerators. It opens up the possibility to manipulate the translational motion of a wider range of species than has been demonstrated using other quantum-state-selective techniques such as multi-stage Stark deceleration, and applies to a very different class of species than those to which Rydberg Stark deceleration is appropriate. The results of a recent series of experiments in which we have decelerated ground state hydrogen will be presented along with progress toward three-dimensional magnetic trapping of the decelerated radicals. In these experiments magnetic fields of 1-2~T are pulsed in each of the coils which make up the decelerator for tens of microseconds, with rise and fall times shorter than 5~$\mu$s. We have characterized the decelerated part of the gas pulse and studied the effect of zero field time windows, in which electron spin flips can occur, on the deceleration process.    [Preview Abstract]

B26.00007: Kinetics of Cold Molecule Production in ``Kinematic'' Cooling
Jeffrey Kay , Kevin Strecker , David Chandler

``Kinematic'' cooling is a general technique by which a vast array of molecules can be translationally cooled using crossed atomic and molecular beams. The success of the technique relies primarily on the existence of an approximate mass degeneracy between the molecule to be cooled and its atomic (or molecular) collision partner. Here, we discuss factors that affect the efficiency of cold molecule production by this method, as well as schemes that may allow tunability of the velocity and temperature of the cold molecules on a fine scale.    [Preview Abstract]

B26.00008: A new source for quantum optics with biomolecules and biomolecular clusters
Markus Marksteiner , Philipp Haslinger , Hendrik Ulbricht , Markus Arndt

We present recent progress towards matter wave experiments with amino acids, polypeptides and large biomolecular clusters. All successful experiments on macromolecule interferometry so far, with fullerenes, fullerene derivates and large perfluoroalkyl-functionalized azobenzenes used effusive beam sources. The combination of Stark deflectometry with quantum interferometry also allowed us to create a new device for precisely measuring electric susceptibilities of large molecules in the gas phase. In order to apply quantum interference to molecules of biological interest, we have now implemented a pulsed laser desorption source. The combination of UV laser desorption into an intense noble gas jet and single-photon ionization by a VUV excimer laser (157nm) allows us to observe intense neutral jets of amino acids (e.g. Tryptophan), nucleotides (e.g. Guanin) and polypeptides ranging from tri-peptides to Gramicidin. Remarkably, we also found a new method for producing large neutral amino acid clusters, such as for instance Trp$_{30}$, with masses exceeding 6000 amu: the addition of alkaline Earth salts in the desorption process leads to the inclusion of at least one metal atom per complex and is sufficient to catalyze the cluster formation process.    [Preview Abstract]

B26.00009: Collisions of ultracold molecules
Invited Speaker: Hanns-Christoph Naegerl

In our experiments we routinely produce ultracold trapped samples of dimer molecules out of a Cs atomic gas by exploiting the atom-dimer coupling near Feshbach resonances. We explore the rich molecular structure for the Cs dimers near the atomic threshold by consecutive state transfer after initial dimer production and produce atom-dimer mixtures for which we measure the atom-dimer collisional rate as a function of magnetic field at temperatures down to 40 nK. We find resonant enhancement of this rate for sufficiently small dimer binding energies for which coupling to an Efimov trimer state is possible. We also produce pure dimer samples for which we measure the collisional loss rate. For a weakly bound molecular s-state this rate depends strongly on temperature and on the applied magnetic field. We will also discuss first results from our experiment on producing ultracold ro-vibrational ground state molecules for the case of Cs dimers and RbCs starting from weakly bound molecules which initially are produced on a Feshbach resonance.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00001: Spectroscopy of large hydrogen clusters in He droplets and H$_{2}$ droplets.
Invited Speaker: Takamasa Momose

Clusters of molecular hydrogen (H$_{2}$) at low temperatures have been attracted much attention because of the possible superfluid phase of molecular hydrogen. Parahydrogen has been predicted to undergo Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) and to exhibit a superfluid phase below 6 K. However, since the freezing point of H$_{2}$ (14 K) is much higher than the predicted superfluid transltion temperature, the supercooling of bulk H$_{2}$ system has not been achieved despite many attempts. Clusters are known to exhibit lower freezing and melting temperatures than their bulk system due to the size effect. In addition, the melting temperature may become significantly lower than the freezing temperature in such clusters, and coexistence of liquid and solid phases between the melting and freezing temperatures has been predicted theoretically. Thus, clusters of molecular hydrogen are very appealing system for the observation of possible superfluid phase of molecular hydrogen. Since superfluid is a macroscopic property, we have studied properties of hydrogen clusters with fairly large size ($N=100 - 10^{6}$) by using He droplet spectroscopy. Some advantages of using droplet spectroscopy for this study include (1) cluster size can be precisely controlled by its pickup process, and (2) the temperature of clusters is well defined. Laser induced fluorescence of several molecules doped in H$_{2}$ clusters showed clear evidence of non-rigidity of hydrogen clusters at 0.4 K or 4 K. We have also observed a clear difference in the LIF spectra between {\it parahydrogen} and {\it orthohydrogen} clusters. We will discuss the properties of large parahydrogen clusters from the dependence on the cluster size and concentration of orthohydrogen.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00002: Hydrogen clusters that remained fluid
Kirill Kuyanov-Prozument , Andrey Vilesov

\textit{Para}-H$_{2}$ may constitute the only other superfluid besides helium. The superfluid transition temperature is predicted to be around 2 K, well below freezing of H$_{2}$ at 13.8 K. Numerous attempts to supercool macroscopic H$_{2}$ samples proved to be unsuccessful. Our approach includes formation of H$_{2}$ clusters in a pulsed cryogenic nozzle beam expansion of a neat $p$H$_{2}$ gas as well as \textbf{\textit{X}}\textbf{{\%}} of $p$H$_{2}$ diluted in He and interrogation via Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering. At \textbf{\textit{X}}\textbf{ = 2 -- 100 {\%}} the frequency of the vibrational Q$_{1}$(0) line in clusters remains constant at about $\nu $ = 4149.7 cm$^{-1}$ very similar to 4149.6 cm$^{-1}$ as in solid $p$H$_{2}$ and lower than in liquid $p$H$_{2 }$at 18 K (4151.9 cm$^{-1})$. The rotational S$_{0}$(0) transition show some characteristic crystal field splitting having magnitude of about 6 cm$^{-1}$. The splitting pattern is different from that in the \textit{hcp} solid, suggesting different structure in solid $p$H$_{2}$ clusters. At \textbf{\textit{X}}\textbf{ $\le $ 2 {\%}}, the frequency of the Q$_{1}$(0) line increases to about 4150.5 cm$^{-1}$, which is consistent with that expected in the supercooled liquid. The S$_{0}$(0) transition in these clusters, consisting of about 5 x 10$^{4}$ molecules, appears as a single line at the same frequency as in liquid $p$H$_{2}$. The temperature of these supercooled clusters is estimated to be less than about 1 K. Possible superfluidity of the clusters is discussed.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00003: Three-body interactions in liquid and solid hydrogen: Evidence from vibrational spectroscopy
Robert Hinde

In the cryogenic low-density liquid and solid phases of H$_2$ and D$_2$, the H$_2$ and D$_2$ molecules retain good rotational and vibrational quantum numbers that characterize their internal degrees of freedom. High-resolution infrared and Raman spectroscopic experiments provide extremely sensitive probes of these degrees of freedom. We present here fully-first-principles calculations of the infrared and Raman spectra of liquid and solid H$_2$ and D$_2$, calculations that employ a high-quality six-dimensional coupled-cluster H$_2$-H$_2$ potential energy surface and quantum Monte Carlo treatments of the single-molecule translational degrees of freedom. The computed spectra agree very well with experimental results once we include three-body interactions among the molecules, interactions which we also compute using coupled-cluster quantum chemical methods. We predict the vibrational spectra of liquid and solid H$_2$ at several temperatures and densities to provide a framework for interpreting recent experiments designed to search for superfluid behavior in small H$_2$ droplets. We also present preliminary calculations of the spectra of mixed H$_2$/D$_2$ solids that show how positional disorder affects the spectral line shapes in these systems.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00004: Rotational spectrum of small, doped $^{3}$He clusters
Tatjana Skrbic , Saverio Moroni , Stefano Baroni

In recent years, symmetry-adapted imaginary-time correlation functions have been extensively used to study the rotational spectrum of doped $^{4}$He clusters within the frame of the reptation quantum Monte Carlo method. The success of this approach relies on the choice of suitable correlation functions, whose spectral resolution is dominated by few, well separated eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian. Under these conditions, reliable excitation energies can be extracted by inverse Laplace transform. This method has been tailored for bosons, due to the positivity of the ground-state wave-function and to the distinctive scarcity of low-lying states. For sufficiently small systems, however, the states of the discrete spectrum can be calculated in the same manner also with Fermi statistics, using appropriate generalizations of the correlation functions. We present rotational spectra for small $^{3}$He clusters doped with molecules --such as CO2 and OCS-- whose effective moments of inertia, in $^{4}$He clusters, feature a non-trivial dependence on the system size, with a pronounced turnaround for less than 10 atoms.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00005: Quantum melting and superfluidity of molecular hydrogen clusters
Invited Speaker: Massimo Boninsegni

Clusters of parahydroge comprising between 10 and 50 molecules have been extensively studied by computer simulations based on the continuous-space Worm Algorithm, which allows one to go down to temperatures as low as a few hundredths of a K. These clusters display an intriguing interplay of liquid- and solid-like behavior as a function of both temperature and cluster size. In this sense, their physics is far richer than that of helium clusters. An intriguing phenomenon predicted by our simulations is {\it quantum melting}, whereby clusters in some size range (roughly between 22 and 30 molecules) are observed to go from rigid, solid-like, to essentially structureless and liquid-like as the temperature is lowered, due to the onset of quantum exchange cycles involving all the molecules in the cluster. At low temperature these clusters turn superfluid; their local superfluid response has been analyzed, and found to be essentially uniform throughout the system in the $T\to 0$ limit, even in clusters with a pronounced shell structure. In particular, exchanges involving molecules in the inner and outer shells are shown to be underlying the superfluid response. This system can also allow one to gain insight into the relationship of the superfluid properties with Bose condensation, and aspect that has been thoroughly investigated.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00006: Alkaline Earth Metal Atom Complexes with HCN Trapped On/In Helium Droplets: Vibrational Excitation Induced Solvation and Desolvation
Gary Douberly

Infrared laser spectroscopy is used to probe the rotational dynamics of the binary HCN-M (M=Ca, Sr) complexes, either solvated within or bound to helium droplets. The ``surface bound'' spectral signatures reported previously for the HCN-alkali atom complexes are observed for both species, while a second band is observed for HCN-Ca that corresponds to a solvated species. IR-IR double resonance spectroscopy is used to probe the interconversion of the two distinct HCN-Ca populations. Above a threshold droplet size, vibrational excitation results in the solvation of the surface bound HCN-Sr complex.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00007: Imaging Photoelectron Dynamics in Doped Helium Droplets
Chia Wang , Oleg Kornilov , Darcy Peterka , Jeong Kim , Oliver Gessner , Daniel Neumark

Photoionization of He droplets doped with Xe and Kr atoms have been investigated by photoelectron imaging utilizing VUV synchrotron radiation. Photoelectron images were recorded over a wide range of He droplet sizes, photon energies, and dopant pick-up conditions. Significant ionization of dopants was observed at 21.6 eV, the absorption maximum of 2${ }^1P$electronic excited state of He droplets, suggesting an indirect ionization via excitation transfer. Photoelectron images and spectra indicate multiple pathways for photoelectrons generated by this process to escape the droplet. Special attention is paid to the excitation transfer dynamics and the electron relaxation in He droplets. It is found that excitation transfer from 2${ }^1P$state to dopants competes with relaxation to the lower 2${ }^1S$ state. The excitation is likely a localized exciton that transfers the energy to the dopant via a dipole-dipole hopping mechanism. The conduction band of He droplets as a function of droplet size is also observed. The conduction band edge reaches the bulk limit for the largest He droplets. The electron under the conduction band becomes trapped and forms an electron bubble that escapes the droplet by transcending a barrier near the liquid/vapor interface.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00008: Interchange-Tunneling Splitting in HCl Dimer in Helium Nanodroplets
Dmitry Skvortsov , Russell Sliter , Myong Yong Choi , Andrey F. Vilesov

Infrared spectra of HCl dimers have been obtained in helium nanodroplets. The splitting in the vibrationally excited state of the bonded H-Cl stretching band ($v_{2})$ in (H$^{35}$Cl - H$^{37}$Cl) dimers was obtained to be 2.7 cm$^{-1}$ as compared to 3.7 cm$^{-1}$ in free dimer. From the splitting, the strength of the interchange-tunneling interaction in liquid helium was obtained to be 0.85 cm$^{-1}$, which is about a factor of two smaller than in the free dimer. The results are compared with the previous spectroscopic study of (HF)$_{2}$ in He droplets as well as to the theoretical study of (HF)$_{2}$ and (HCl)$_{2}$ dimers in small He clusters.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00009: Path integral studies of methane rotations in $^4$He clusters
Nikolay Markovskiy , Chi Mak

Path integral simulations have been carried out to study the rotations of a methane inside a single shell of $^4$He atoms at 0.3~K to address the question of whether dopant molecule rotations can be used to probe the quantum statistics and superfluidity of the shell. We examined the effects of the probe molecule on the $^4$He exchanges and their counter effects on the renormalized rotation constant of the probe systematically by varying the intrinsic moment of inertia of the methane. The observed effects show strong dependence on the intrinsic moment of inertia of the rotating probe, with a heavy probe favoring stronger templating of the $^4$He density and a corresponding suppression of exchanges in the shell, as well as a large renormalization in the probe's effective rotation constant, while a light probe shows almost no effect on the shell density or the effective rotation constant. These results can be rationalized in terms of a rotational smearing effect and suggest that there is no clearly quantifiable relationship between the superfluid fraction of the shell and the renormalized rotation constant of the probe for cases where the probe molecule has weak anisotropic interactions with the $^4$He atoms.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00010: Pump-probe spectroscopy of Rg-Br$_2$ linear isomers
Jordan Pio , Craig Bieler , Wytze van der Veer , Kenneth Janda

We have recorded and analyzed the \mbox{\textit{X}$\rightarrow$\textit{B}} spectra for three Rg--Br-Br linear isomers [Rg = He, Ne, Ar] using pump-probe spectroscopy. This work is an interesting test case for the transition from quantum to quasi-classical dynamics, and how the dynamics are interconnected with changes in the potential energy surface. Helium is not only much lighter than argon, but the He-Br$_2$ potential well is much shallower than that of Ar-Br$_2$. Excitation spectra to individual Rg-Br$_2$ (\textit{B}, $\nu$') intermolecular potentials were recorded by probing the Br$_2$ (\textit{B}, $\nu$') asymptotic limit of the potential while scanning the pump laser. The continuum spectra of the three species are very different, with the He-Br$_2$ spectrum peaking at threshold while the Ar-Br$_2$ spectrum is negligible at threshold and strongly blue shifted. The linear Ne-Br$_2$ bond energy was measured to be \mbox{71 $\pm$ 3 cm$^{-1}$} by the threshold energy for the onset of the continuum. Since excitation tends to move electron density to the $\sigma^*$ orbital of the Br-Br bond near the rare gas atom, the intramolecular stretching vibration (Br-Br) and the intermolecular stretching vibration (Rg-Br) are strongly coupled. The experiments will be compared to a two dimensional model using the best available potential energy functions.    [Preview Abstract]

D26.00011: Time-resolved photoionization of He droplets using high-harmonic
Oleg Kornilov , Oliver Gessner , Mathew Leonard , Stephen Leone , Daniel Neumark , Chun-Te Peng , Chia Wang

Helium droplets are widely used as nanocontainers for matrix-isolated rotational, vibrational and electronic spectroscopy. Their superfluid nature and low temperatures (0.37K) provide gentle environment for embedded atoms, molecules and complexes. However, most of the traditional spectroscopic techniques are not efficient for pure droplets, because of the very high energies of electronic transitions. One of the recent studies [1] conducted using synchrotron light demonstrated very interesting phenomena in photoionization of pure He droplets. It has been shown that below the threshold for He atom photoionization essentially zero kinetic energy electrons are emitted independent of the wavelength of the photoionizing radiation. In this contribution a new experiment will be presented utilizing a novel source of VUV radiation based on the high-harmonic generation. In this process femtosecond pulses of radiation are created, which will be used in a VUV-pump/IR-probe scheme to study dynamics of photoionization of He droplets. First results towards the time-dependent photoelectron spectra will be presented. [1] D. Peterka \textit{et al}, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{91}, 043401 (2003)    [Preview Abstract]
